If you qualify for Medicare but don't know where to begin, we have licensed agents[1] at 1-855-728-0510 (TTY 711) who can answer your questions and help you get enrolled. There's no obligation.

Each SNP limits membership to people in one of these groups or a subset of one of these groups. For instance, a SNP that's designed to serve people with chronic and disabling mental health conditions might include access to a network of healthcare providers who specialize in treating severe mental health issues. Such a plan would also feature clinical case management that's designed to serve people with this condition.

You can get enrolled three ways:

  1. Call a plan directly. If you know the plan you want, this way is quick and easy.
  2. Go to www.Medicare.gov and enroll through the government website. From there you can look up your medications, compare plans, and get your application started online.
  3. Use an independent Georgia insurance agent. This is the best way to go if you need someone to help advise you.

If You Don't Qualify for SNP

If you don't qualify to enroll in a Special Needs Plan, you have other options, including:

  • Medicare Advantage plans
  • Medicare Part D plans (prescriptions)
  • Medicare Supplements
