If you have both Medicaid and Medicare, there’s a special type of health plan you should know about, called a "Dual Special Needs Plan,” or “dual plan” for short. Dual plans are a type of Medicare Advantage plan that work together with your Medicaid health plan. They cover doctor visits, hospital stays and prescription drugs. These plans also include help to coordinate care and benefits. Plus, they offer programs and extra benefits to help you save money and live a healthier life.
