S19 E06 - You or a Loved One May Qualify for a Medicare Special Needs Program with Enhanced Benefits. Learn More

Join me as we discuss who qualifies for Medicare Special Needs Coverage. We will walk you through the process to justify if you have:

  • A Chronic Medical Condition
  • Are you in a Nursing Home or Require Equivalent Home Healthcare?


Our experts from RPS Benefits by Design are Maria Ahlers, Director of Client Services, Carolee Steele, Director of Medicare, Individual Operations and Joyce Thompson, Individual & Medicare Insurance Consultant and they are trained, certified and specialize in this specific area.


If you are a caregiver, mother, daughter, or anyone who takes care of someone with special needs and is currently on Medicare or Medicaid, as soon as this April, the recipient may receive a letter, call, or email informing them they will no longer qualify for Medicaid.


Medicare Advantage plans every caregiver and family member should know about and why the omnibus spending bill is going to take Medicaid benefits away from 15 million people.


We will discuss why this is happening and 6.1 million of those people will qualify for an ACA policy at about $10 a month.
