  • You must have Medicare Part A and Part B, live in one of the plan's specific service areas, and qualify for Medicaid to enroll.
  • It includes Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage. The annual Part D deductible is $615.00.
  • Benefits and cost-sharing may be coordinated with Medicaid coverage.
