UnitedHealthcare health plans are offered by United Healthcare Insurance Company and our affiliates. We (and other private insurance companies) work with federal and state agencies to provide government-sponsored health insurance. We are not part of Medicare. We work with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and many state governments to provide health coverage for Medicare and Medicaid recipients. Learn more about Medicare.
Medicaid is a federal and state program that provides health care coverage to people who qualify. Each state runs its own Medicaid program, but the federal government has rules that all states must follow. The federal government also provides at least half of the funding for their Medicaid requirements. Learn more about what Medicaid is and what Medicaid covers.
If you make a change, it will take effect on the first day of the next month. You can also make changes to your coverage during the Annual Enrollment Period from Oct. 15 to Dec. 7. If so, your changes will take effect on Jan. 1 of the next year. Learn more about Medicare enrollment periods.
Medicaid provides health coverage to millions of people, including eligible low-income adults, children, pregnant women, elderly adults and people with disabilities. Medicaid is funded jointly by states and the federal government. Medicare is a federal program. It provides coverage for people age 65 and older, and also some people under age 65 who qualify due to a disability. Learn more about the difference between Medicaid and Medicare.
Yes. Some people qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. These people qualify for Medicare due to age (by being age 65 or older) or because they have a disability. They also qualify for Medicaid because they meet the Medicaid requirements in their state. People who are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid are "dual eligible." Learn more about having both Medicare and Medicaid.
The Affordable Care Act created a new office within the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The Medicare-Medicaid Coordination Office makes sure people who are dually enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid have full access to seamless, high quality health care. The goal is to make the two programs work together more effectively to improve care and lower costs.
NOTE: It's important to remember that to stay eligible for a dual health plan, you must recertify for Medicaid every year. As long as you stay eligible, your dual health plan will renew automatically each year. Learn more about dual plan enrollment.
Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) members must be eligible for Medicaid. If a member loses their Medicaid eligibility, they go into a grace period. Depending on the health plan, this grace period could be 30 days or up to 6 months. Members can still get care and services through their health plan, and Medicare will still pay for most of the care and benefits covered. The only difference is that, during the grace period, the D-SNP member will be responsible for any out-of-pocket costs. These could be copayments, coinsurance, deductibles and premiums that Medicaid would have paid for before. Learn more about losing D-SNP eligibility.
D-SNP stands for Dual Special Needs Plan. These plans are for low-income individuals who are dually eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare. C-SNP stands for Chronic Special Needs Plan. These plans are for people who have a chronic health condition. Examples include chronic heart failure, cardiovascular disorders and diabetes. Learn more about Medicare Special Needs Plans.
Yes. Dental coverage* is one of the many extra benefits you could get at no cost with a Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) from UnitedHealthcare. Besides regular exams and cleanings, you may also get an allowance for dental services. This allowance could help pay for range of dental care, such as fillings, root canals, implants and other dental services. Learn more about D-SNP dental coverage for those with Medicaid and Medicare.
Yes. Vision coverage* is one of the many extra benefits you could get at no cost with a Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) from UnitedHealthcare. Besides routine eye exams, your vision coverage may also give you hundreds of dollars in credits to help pay for eyewear. That could go a long way toward helping pay for a new pair of glasses or contact lenses. Learn more about D-SNP vision coverage for those with Medicaid and Medicare.
