Ahah! So it’s like a Medica Prime Solutions plan. It’s so hard to find this information sometimes. You call insurance companies and get two different answers. Nothing clear on website. Thank you for your help!

The Freedom Plan is all that I have ever encountered myself. It is one of the cost sharing plans where Traditional Medicare is prime for part A and Health Partners is prime for part B. I am not even sure if
they offer an actual Medicare advantage plan???

When patient qualifies for Medicare Part A homecare services and they have this Healthpartners Freedom plan (H2462)- traditional Medicare is primary for Part A services.

As far as I know you cannot bill Medicare replacement plans (Freedom plans). We never do/can and we are part of HealthPartners organization.
Thank you,

Health Partners is newer in our area and we are starting to get a lot of people with their plans. So I am wondering who bills to them for medicare replacement plans. Do you bill services to them as episodes?
