Eligibility required for this C-SNP
The plan must verify that you have one of its qualifying chronic or disabling conditions, such as Cardio DIS CHF and Diabetes. If the plan uses a pre-enrollment assessment, provider verification is due by the end of your first month of enrollment. If verification is still missing, the plan must notify you and may disenroll you at the end of your second month. Your coverage continues if verification arrives before then. Review the official plan documents for the exact criteria.
