Buckeye Health Plan Continues to Serve MyCare Ohio

Last year, LeadingAge Ohio shared that Buckeye Health Plan, one of the four designated health plans under the Next Gen program, would not be expanding in 2026 either through adding new enrollees or by growing its service area to statewide coverage. 

Buckeye Health Plan continues to serve enrollees that had elected Buckeye as their health plan prior to the first phase of MyCare Next Generation which began in January 2026, and expects to grow to statewide coverage in 2027. LeadingAge Ohio will continue to monitor the roll-out of the MyCare Next Gen program, and welcomes member input and feedback on successes, challenges and gaps in the transition. Please share any concerns with Susan Wallace at swallace@leadingageohio.org.
