With a dual health plan, you could get a monthly credit to help with everyday needs like food, OTC products and utilities
It seems like the prices of everything just keep going up these days. But it’s people on a limited income who really feel the squeeze. Even paying for necessities like food, over-the-counter (OTC) health care products, heat and electricity can be a challenge. So, for those who have both Medicaid and Medicare, a dual health plan can provide welcome relief. Dual health plans are for people who are dually eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid. Dual health plans include many extra benefits that can make life easier for low-income individuals. A monthly credit to spend on healthy food, OTC products and utility bills is just one example. See all the other benefits dual health plans may offer.*
