A Wellcare D-SNP is a special type of Medicare Advantage plan. D-SNPs are special because they provide additional support and benefits at no extra cost for people who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid coverage. If you qualify for a D-SNP or if you have low income, you may also be eligible for the EXTRA HELP program which provides cost support for prescription drugs. Let Wellcare help you get all the coverage and benefits you qualify for.

When looking for a D-SNP, here are some Frequently Asked Questions and helpful answers to guide you.
D-SNP stands for Dual-Eligible Special Needs Plan (D-SNP). To be dual-eligible means that you qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid benefits.
With a D-SNP, you may need to pick a PCP depending on whether your network is an HMO or PPO.
With a D-SNP, you don’t need a referral as long as the specialist is in-network. You will need a referral to see an out-of-network specialist.
You can choose to see a provider that is out-of-network, but you will likely pay more for your care.
You cannot choose a separate Part D plan with a D-SNP, since pharmacies are part of the network.
With a Wellcare D-SNP, you can get extra coverage for things like dental, vision, hearing, mental health, & much more depending on the plan you select.
