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.
