J.D. Power’s top-ranked health plans for customer experience | 2024

Overall satisfaction with commercial health plans is up from 2023, but the gap between top-performing and low-performing plans is widening, according to the J.D. Power annual Commercial Member Health Plan Study published May 29.

The study surveyed 29,188 members of 147 commercial health plans. Members were asked to rate plans on eight areas, including the accessibility of health services, digital channels and trustworthiness. 

The average rating for plans was 565 on a 1,000 point scale, up 3 points from 2023. The highest-performing plans saw their scores jump by 20 points on average, while the lowest-performing plans dropped by 8 points. 

The largest gaps between the highest and lowest performing plans were in helping members save time and money, ability to get health services when members want, and overall trust.
