Health Plan Compatibility
Medicare Advantage Special Need Plans are not compatible with most other forms of health insurance. If you have Medicare Part A and/or Medicare Part B and join a SNP plan, you will be disenrolled from Original Medicare. You cannot simultaneously enroll in an SNP plan and Medicare Supplement Insurance.
With a D-SNP, members retain their existing Medicaid plan and benefits. Veterans who have VA Health Benefits may also be able to receive care at their local VA hospital.
