Open Medicare Advantage enrollment begins Oct. 15, Senior Care Plus available to Carson City, Washoe County residents
Medicare recipients have the opportunity to enroll in locally-owned Senior Care Plus, a Medicare Advantage Plan, for healthcare coverage throughout Renown Health’s integrated network, remote urgent and emergency healthcare anywhere in the United States at any time, as well as global urgent care and emergency room coverage.
Senior Care Plus is available for eligible beneficiaries residing in Carson City and Washoe County during the 2019 Annual Election Period, taking place Tuesday, Oct. 15 through Saturday, Dec. 7.
Members have access to Senior Care Plus’ local care network, Renown Health. This network is the region’s most preferred healthcare network (reported by the National Research Corporation, July 1, 2018 – June 30, 2019) offering primary, specialty and emergency services across northern Nevada.
In addition to local coverage, members have access to providers 24 hours a day, seven days a week in all 50 states through Teladoc. This remote service allows members to contact board-certified primary care providers, pediatricians and family medicine physicians in a convenient, affordable manner. Teladoc is useful when traveling, if a non-emergency issue arises outside of urgent care hours, or for short-term prescription refills. Outside of the country, Senior Care Plus members have in-person urgent care and emergency room coverage.
“We are committed to providing our members with access to a quality care network no matter where they are,” said CJ Bawden, Director of Government Programs at Hometown Health. “Choosing a health insurance plan can be confusing. It’s our priority to help individuals select coverage that makes navigating the healthcare system one step simpler.”
Senior Care Plus offers a wide range of plans, many of which have no monthly premiums. Plan options also offer supplemental benefits not covered by original Medicare, such as hearing, dental and vision coverage as well as $20 chiropractic visits, prescription drug gap coverage at no cost, and complimentary gym memberships.
