EmblemHealth Medicare Advantage HMO Plan

With the EmblemHealth Medicare Advantage HMO plan, you get comprehensive coverage, just like with the HIP Prime^® HMO plan — but with an additional enhanced pharmacy benefit. And, you save with lower copays while your premium contribution stays the same.

You get coverage for your medical, preventive care, outpatient, and hospital services. Your doctor visits and hospital services are covered with $0 copays. You also have four-tier pharmacy coverage with $0 copays for generic and brand-name formulary drugs, while non-formulary drugs are covered with a $40 copay. Select Care drugs are covered with $0 copay.

These benefits are neither offered nor guaranteed under contract with the FEHB Program, but are made available to all enrollees and family members who become members of the EmblemHealth Medicare Advantage HMO plan.
