Health Plan Compatibility
Special Needs Plans (SNPs) under Medicare Advantage typically do not work with other types of health insurance. If you have Medicare Part A or Part B and decide to join an SNP plan, you will be removed from Original Medicare. Furthermore, you cannot be enrolled in an SNP plan and hold Medicare Supplement Insurance at the same time.
Members of a D-SNP maintain their current Medicaid plan and Medicaid benefits. Veterans with VA Health Benefits might have the option to receive care at a nearby VA hospital.
