A person who is “dual eligible” qualifies for both Medicare and Medicaid. Dual eligible health insurance, such as Fidelis Dual Advantage plans, enables your health care to be managed seamlessly between both programs without any gaps in coverage — all for little to no out-of-pocket cost.

People over the age of 65 who meet Medicaid income and enrollment requirements can especially benefit from this type of coverage. You are also able to enroll year-round, so there is no need to wait.

Depending on the plan, Fidelis Care offers dual eligible members an Over-the-Counter debit card, Flexible spending reimbursement for health-care related expenses, vision coverage, dental benefits, and much more. We also offer all dual eligible members personalized health support from a Nurse Case Manager who can help you coordinate your care and services.

A Nurse Case Manager could help you with:

• Transportation to and from doctors’ appointments.
• Access to community services that can help you live more independently.
• Care and services to help you manage chronic illness.
• Support for taking your medications.
• Helping you to receive coordinated care and services from your health care providers.
