Secure Horizons
Secure Horizons is one of the leading Medicare Advantage brands in the United States. Its goal is to simplify healthcare and assist plan holders in getting the most benefit out of their Medicare coverage. Clients are those who are over the age of 50 as well as other individuals who qualify for Medicare. This brand is recognized nationwide for offering a wide range of plans as well as other quality healthcare services.
It is important to note that you may not be eligible for enrolment in an Advantage Plan if you have been diagnosed with end-stage renal disease. Once you have successfully enrolled in a plan, this will automatically replace your original Medicare coverage. The plans range from low premium to no monthly premium, which makes your out-of-pocket costs a lot lower than what it would be if you continue with your traditional health coverage.
There are several types of Medicare Advantage Plans that you can choose from. An HMO plan is one that covers health and hospital care that you get from a network of doctors and hospitals. With this plan, any care you receive from health providers that are not members of the network is not covered. Another type of coverage is the Preferred Provider Organization or PPO plan. This plan covers your care regardless of whether your care provider is a network member or not. However, you can expect higher co-payment or co-insurance costs for out-of-network services.
Secure Horizons also has programs that provide assistance to caregivers. Respite Care is a program wherein trained nurse aides take care of the patient for a day or two so that the main caregiver can take some time off for himself. The Caregiver Program provides practical advice on how you can best balance caring for the patient with your other responsibilities.
Information is also provided to help you take a more active role in your own healthcare. Seminars are provided throughout the year with topics ranging from healthy eating to managing medications. These seminars are presented by qualified health professionals and all attendees are provided with reading materials that they can review at home.
The center is manned by personnel who are all fluent in either Mandarin or Cantonese. This will make it easier for clients to communicate with anyone from the executive director to any of the service representatives. Secure Horizons believe that by effectively bridging the language barrier, clients will now have better access to vital information about their coverage and benefits.
