Frequently Asked Questions
About Medicare-Medicaid Dual Eligible SNP
Medicare-Medicaid Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans (D-SNP) are Medicare Advantage plans specifically designed for beneficiaries who are eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare. These plans can include benefits and coverage from both State-level Medicaid and Federal-level Medicare programs.
In order to be eligible for Medicare-Medicaid Dual plans you will likely have to be eligible for your State’s Medicaid program and also eligible for Medicare. Each State has different requirements and income limits to qualify for Medicaid. You may need to meet the income limit requirements for your State’s Medicaid program in order to qualify for a Medicare-Medicaid Dual Eligible plan.
Medicare and Medicaid coordinate benefits and coverage for Dual Eligible Plans. Medicare is primary and pays first for medical services, while Medicaid is secondary and may cover medical costs not covered, or partially covered, by Medicare.
