Understanding Chronic Special Needs Plans (C-SNPs)
Chronic Special Needs Plans (C-SNPs) are a specific type of Medicare Advantage plan designed for individuals with chronic or disabling conditions. These plans offer tailored healthcare benefits and services to address the unique needs of those living with chronic illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and more. By focusing on the specific requirements of their members, C-SNPs aim to improve health outcomes and enhance quality of life.
