What is PartnershipAdvantage?
PartnershipAdvantage Overview
In the fall of 2006, Partnership Healthplan of California received approval from the Centers For Medicare and Medicaid Services to launch a program which coordinates a full range of Medicare and Medi-Cal services. This new program, called PartnershipAdvantage, is designed to serve low income seniors and persons with disabilities. By combining Medicare, Medi-Cal and prescription drug coverage, PartnershipAdvantage allows members to receive all of their health care benefits in one package.
All PHC members who receive Medi-Cal and are eligible to receive Medicare may enroll in PartnershipAdvantage. Services included under the program include: doctor's visits, hospitalizations, long-term care, inpatient and outpatient care, emergency medical services and prescription drug coverage. In addition, home safety assessments (for items such as shower bars), an annual physical exam, non-emergency transportation and at-home recovery services are also covered under certain conditions.
Enrollment in PartnershipAdvantage is limited to residents of Solano, Napa and Yolo counties. To receive answers to frequently asked questions about the program, click here.
