The Sharp Direct Advantage® difference

As part of the Sharp HealthCare family, we provide direct access to The Sharp Experience, from health insurance to health care. The Sharp Experience isn’t one thing we do. It’s everything we do. It’s our culture, our care philosophy and our promise to transform the health care experience for each other and those we serve. We believe San Diegans deserve more, so our Medicare Advantage plans are designed specifically to do just that.
