Coordinated Benefits Plan (HMO)

The Healthfirst Coordinated Benefits Plan is a Medicare Advantage plan that offers members all the benefits of Original Medicare, plus dental, hearing, vision, routine transportation, and 24/7 access to care with Teladoc^© and the Nurse Help Line. And you don’t need referrals to see in-network specialists. This plan may be right for you if you don’t need prescription drug coverage because you have it through an employer, union, or other source.

This plan does not include prescription drug coverage under Part D. If you’re a member of another Medicare Advantage plan or standalone Medicare prescription drug plan (Part D) and you join this plan, you’ll be disenrolled from the other Medicare Advantage or Medicare Part D plan.

Plan Highlights:

Comprehensive dental
Vision exams and eyeglasses
Hearing exams and hearing aids
Routine transportation
