Google. The majority are going to be Plans you can’t sell as a broker anyway..such as Kaiser
PDF is too large for me to attach, but here ya go Part C and D Performance Data - Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
There's a zip file -" 2019 Part C and D Medicare Star Ratings Data." Within that file look for the folder "2019 Star Ratings Technical Notes, Fact Sheet, an Medication Lists." Finally you want the "2019 Star Ratings Fact Sheet."
For 5 star MA/MAPD plans, you can:
It's not just for people who already have a MA/MAPD plan and want to switch to a 5 star MA/MAPD plan.
Correct?
- Disenroll from Original Medicare and enroll in a 5-star Medicare Advantage plan.
- Switch from any Medicare Advantage plan to a 5-star Medicare Advantage plan.
- Switch from a 5-star Medicare Advantage plan to a different 5-star Medicare Advantage plan.

Correct?
"Disenroll from Original Medicare" gives me a headache. Anyway, to quote CMS:
Eligible individuals can switch from an MA plan, a PDP, a cost plan or Original Medicare to an MA-only plan, an MA-PD plan, a PDP or a cost plan that has a 5-star overall rating.
An individual using this SEP can enroll in an MA-only plan, an MA-PD plan, a cost plan or a PDP with a 5-star overall rating even if coming from Original Medicare (with or without concurrent enrollment in a PDP). Individuals enrolled in a plan with a 5-star overall rating may also switch to a different plan with a 5-star overall rating. An individual in an MA-only or MA-PD coordinated care plan who switches to a PDP with a 5-star overall rating will lose MA coverage and will revert to Original Medicare for basic medical coverage.
Regardless of whether the individual has Part D coverage prior to use of this SEP, any individual who enrolls in a 5-star Medicare Advantage private Fee-for-Service plan without prescription drug coverage or a 5-star cost plan is eligible for coordinating Part D SEP to enroll in a PDP. (See Chapter 3, Section 30.3.8 #8, letter H of the Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit Manual for more information.)
