Prescription Drug Costs & Benefits

SCAN Embrace includes enhanced benefit Medicare Part D. Enhanced benefits offer greater coverage than basic, typically providing lower cost-sharing, broader drug coverage, and additional benefits, such as covering drugs not included in the standard formulary. These plans usually have higher premiums due to the extra coverage and flexibility they provide, but they cover a larger percentage of overall drug costs.

As of 2023, approximately 75% of people on Medicare are enrolled in enhanced plans.

Prescription Drug Premium with Extra Help

Extra Help is a Social Security program that helps people with limited income and resources lower or cut Part D costs. The following table outlines premium assistance details with Extra Help.

Premium Subsidy Details with Extra Help

The Medicare Part D annual deductible with this plan is $0.00. You must pay this amount at the pharmacy before SCAN Health Plan begins paying its share.

Prescription Drug Out-of-Pocket Costs

In addition to the plan's monthly premium and deductible, SCAN Embrace has out-of-pocket costs you must pay when you pick up your prescriptions.

How to Qualify to Enroll in
SCAN Embrace

To be eligible to enroll in SCAN Embrace, you must meet three requirements:

  1. You are eligible for Medicare;
  2. You live in Orange County (the plan’s service area); and
  3. You require the level of care provided in an institutionalized setting, such as a long-term care nursing facility, for 90 days or more.

If you live at home and require an equivalent level of skilled care, you may be eligible for an Institutional Equivalent Special Needs Plan (IE-SNP).

Before joining SCAN Embrace, consider these questions:

  • Does the plan's provider network include my nursing home or home care provider?
  • What costs should I expect with my coverage (premiums, deductibles, copayments)?
  • Is there an annual limit on my out-of-pocket costs?
  • Will I be able to use my doctors? Are they in the plan's network?
  • Are the plan's in-network providers and facilities in convenient locations?
  • Does the plan provide coverage for services I receive from out-of-network providers?
  • Do I need a referral to see a specialist?
  • Are my medications on the Part D plan's formulary?
  • What special accommodations does the plan make for persons with disabilities?
  • What special language and cultural accommodations does the plan make?

Health Plan Compatibility

Medicare Advantage Special Needs Plans (SNPs) are generally incompatible with most other health insurance options. Enrolling in an SNP plan while having Medicare Part A and/or Medicare Part B will result in disenrollment from Original Medicare. Additionally, it is not possible to simultaneously hold a Medicare Supplement Insurance policy and be part of an SNP plan.

With a D-SNP, members keep the same Medicaid plan and Medicaid benefits. If you are a Veteran and have VA Health Benefits, you may be able to care from your local VA hospital.
