Question 18 Not yet answered Mr. Barrow has diabetes and heart trouble and is generally satisfied with the care he has received under Original Medicare, but he would like to know more about Medicare Advantage Special Needs Plans (SNPs). What could you tell him? Question 18Answer a. SNPs are essentially the same as Original Medicare and are not likely to have a noticeable impact on how Mr. Barrow receives his care. b. SNPs offer care from any doctor or hospital Mr. Barrow would like to use and his costs will always be lower than in Original Medicare. c. Since SNPs don’t cover prescription drugs Mr. Barrow should consider a different option. d. SNPs have special programs for enrollees with chronic conditions, like Mr. Barrow, and they provide prescription drug coverage that could be very helpful as well.
