Special Needs Program (SNP) MODEL OF CARE
At ADVANTAGE, we have a team of care providers who will work with you, your family and healthcare team to create a plan to help you with your health needs. After enrollment, you will fill out a health survey so we can learn more about your health. You will be assigned to a member of our care team and together with your primary doctor we will create your individualized care plan. Your care plan will also be used as a guide to managing your care.
The ADVANTAGE Special Needs Plan is a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) designed for individuals who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. As a member of an HMO, you must use plan providers except in emergency or urgent care situations, or for out of area renal dialysis. If you obtain routine care from out of network providers, neither Medicare nor ADVANTAGE will be responsible for the costs. If you are currently responsible for Part B premiums (based on your category of Medicaid coverage), you must continue to pay these premiums.

Qualified Medicare Beneficiary with full Medicaid (QMB Plus)
