Alcorn & Associates is pleased to offer Medicare Advantage plans that are a great fit for individuals enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B and also use the Veterans Administration for prescription drug benefits.
Since the VA drug benefit satisfies the requirement to have drug coverage at least as good as Medicare Part D, insurance companies can offer a Medicare Advantage plan without prescription drug coverage, called “MA-Only.” And because the companies save money from not including drug coverage, the plans include additional attractive benefits.
Q: Can I enroll in a MA-Only plan any time or do I have to wait until the autumn Annual Enrollment Period?
A: Yes, for veterans using the VA for drug benefits, there is a Special Enrollment Period available throughout the year. This means veterans can enroll in the MA-Only plan with an effective date the first of the next month.
We have listed below some Medicare Advantage MA-Only plan available to residents in select counties in New York State.
