What type of care coordination is specifically offered by Wellcare for older adults?

Wellcare provides Specialized Needs Plans (SNPs) specifically designed for older adults, which address their unique healthcare needs. These plans focus on those individuals who are usually more complex cases, often dealing with chronic conditions that require tailored care coordination. SNPs offer a variety of targeted services that can include medical care, social services, and assistance with daily living activities, all of which are integral for supporting the health and wellbeing of older adults.

This approach ensures that seniors receive comprehensive care management that is specific to their medical and functional requirements, enabling better health outcomes and enhancing quality of life. SNPs are built around the understanding that older adults may have different healthcare needs compared to the general population, and therefore require additional support and resources.

Other options, while potentially beneficial in different contexts, do not specifically align with Wellcare's targeted focus for older adults as SNPs do. Home visit programs and mobile health clinics may provide valuable services but do not exclusively cater to the coordinated care aspects needed for older populations with specialized needs. Tele-health consultations are increasingly significant but do not offer the comprehensive care management highlighted in SNPs.
