What is Next Generation MyCare?

Next Generation MyCare plans put all health and care benefits for Medicare and Medicaid together in one plan for stronger coordination of benefits and support. This makes it easier for members to get the care they need while keeping everything simple and in one place.

Here's what to expect:

  • One care coordinator for both Medicare and Medicaid benefits
  • One ID card
  • Plans may offer extra benefits
  • More personalized care 

Take Action to Maximize Health Benefits

Individuals who were previously enrolled in MyCare Ohio or are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid and live in one of the counties where the Next Generation program is currently available should review their coverage. They have the opportunity to choose a plan that best meets their needs.

Whether the program is already available in your area or will be introduced soon, new changes could affect coverage. Planning ahead is important to keep care running smoothly.

 

What if individuals don’t take action?

Failing to act could result in a loss of essential benefits. In certain situations, some individuals’ coverage may automatically default to Original Medicare (Part A and B only), which might not meet their care needs.

Don’t miss out! This is an important opportunity to maximize health benefits.
