Dual-Eligibility

Helping You Access Medicaid Benefits

Some people who receive Medicare may also be eligible for benefits from a Medicare Savings Program or Medicaid (some people call this being “dual-eligible”). These additional benefits can save you money and help you live a healthier life.

We're here to help you understand your options and guide you through the process of applying for and renewing a Medicare Savings Program or Medicaid benefits. Our knowledgeable advocates will work closely with you to ensure you receive and maintain the benefits you deserve.

Lower Out-of-Pocket Costs

As a dual-eligible member, you may qualify for help with Medicare premiums, deductibles, and copayments, reducing your healthcare expenses.

Expanded Coverage

Dual eligibility may provide you with access to additional services not typically covered by Medicare, such as dental care, vision care, and transportation to medical appointments.

Personalized Assistance

Our dedicated advocates will take the time to understand your unique needs and help you navigate the complexities of dual eligibility, ensuring you receive the full range of benefits available to you.

Streamlined Application

We'll complete the Medicaid application for you, help you gather the necessary documents, and submit it to your applicable state agency to ensure a timely response and enrollment.

Ongoing Support

Our team will continue to work with you even after you've been approved for Medicaid, helping you maintain your eligibility and access the care and services you need.

Renewal

We'll Help You Keep Your Medicaid Coverage

Maintaining your Medicaid or Medicare Savings Program coverage is essential to ensuring you have access to the healthcare services and support you need.

We understand that the annual renewal process can be confusing and time-consuming. That's why our compassionate advocates are here to guide you through the process, helping you avoid any loss of benefits.

Assistance with Paperwork

Our knowledgeable advocates will help you understand and complete the necessary renewal forms, ensuring your information is accurate and complete.

Our dedicated team of advocates, many of whom are veterans themselves or come from military families, is here to help you access the resources and support you've earned through your service.

Who is BeneLynk?

We are professional and caring advocates who understand government and community programs. Our services are paid for by your health plan and come at no cost to you. We “lead with help” to solve your social health problems and help you access more benefits.

Where is BeneLynk located?

BeneLynk's main office is in Sunrise, Florida; however, our team works across the country to assist members in all 50 states + DC.

Will this affect my health care benefits or VA health care?

No. No matter which plan you have, your health care benefits won't change; however, you might be able to get other government programs that could save you money.

How can we reach you if we have any other questions?

Send an email to BeneLynk's customer service team at  info@benelynk.com, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Who is requesting my VA medical record and why?

If you are a Veteran getting care at a VA facility, this care might not be shared with your providers outside of the VA. Your Medicare health plan would like to help you by making sure they have the whole picture of your health. This helps them to better serve you and allows them to offer you programs or reminders that might be good for your health. We know that getting care from two different networks can be challenging, so as your medical home, your health plan wants to help you with this process. It is completely voluntary, and your information is not shared with anyone besides your health plan.

What if I do not want additional help from the government?

The choice is yours! Our services are voluntary and offered at no cost. Medicare Savings Programs (MSPs), Medicaid, Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) and Extra Help are programs that help people who need them. You do not have to sign up for these benefits, but it may be worth it to see if you qualify.

Why is BeneLynk calling me?

Health plans pay BeneLynk to help their members see if they might qualify for programs such as the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP), Medicaid, Medicare Savings Programs (MSPs), or Extra Help. With your permission, we will fill out and send application paperwork to the state or Social Security Administration. We follow up on your application to make sure it gets processed on time and help fix any state errors. We can also assist with any yearly renewals if you need help.

What authority does the VA Form 10-5345 give to you?

This form allows us to get your VA medical health records and share them with your Medicare health plan.

Why are the diagnoses pre-checked?

The diagnoses are pre-checked, so we can ask for the complete medical chart. It does not mean you have those conditions. You can check the "I do not want sensitive diagnoses release..." box if you wish.

Will the VA Form 10-5345 affect my current benefits with my health plan and/or the Veterans Administration?

Completing this form does not affect any benefits you may be getting. Getting this information helps us find additional benefits that could help you.

Why is my date of birth listed on the VA Form 10-5345?

Your date of birth is added on the VA Form 10-5345 as a convenience to you.

How do I get a copy of what you are requesting?

You can get a copy of your VA medical records on the VA website. You can also go to your local VA facility to complete the form in-person.

Can I cancel this authorization?

You can cancel the release in writing at any time, and no more records will be released. The change is effective when the VA Release of Information (ROI) Unit gets your request.

What does the Authorization of Assistance (AoA) form do?

Signing the AoA form lets us help you with things like:

  • Getting another copy of your Medicaid renewal form
  • Filling out state form
  • Helping you get proof of your answers
  • Contacting the Medicaid office to check your renewal date or current coverage

If you ask us for help with your Medicaid or Medicare Savings Program application or renewal, we will use your signed form to prove that we have permission to help you. Unless you contact us for help, the form just stays on file.

How long does the authorization last?

The AoA is good for one year from the date you signed it, or until you are no longer enrolled in your health plan. If you change your mind after you have signed it, you can cancel at any time. Just call 1-888-715-0225 or send an email to info@benelynk.com.

If I sign the AoA form does it mean you will do my annual Medicaid renewal?

No. Although we will help you with your application, your renewal is usually sent to only you on a pre-printed form for you to complete and sign. However, we would be happy to walk through the form with you and answer any questions.

It is important that you keep your address and phone number updated so your Medicaid agency always knows how to reach you. You should also pay attention to any mail you receive from them. Make sure you follow whatever directions they provide to prevent any gap in your benefits.

Do I have to sign the AoA form?

No. Signing the form is completely voluntary. If you let us know that you do not want to sign it, we will update your file, so you do not keep getting mail from us. Just call 1-888-715-0225 or send an email to info@benelynk.com.

Does the AoA form change my plan?

No. The AoA does not change your health plan benefits.

What is the VA Form 10-5345 used for?

This form allows BeneLynk to get your VA health record information for your Medicare health plan. We share your information directly and only with your Medicare health plan, so they can have the whole picture of your health.

Why is someone from Florida helping me even though I live in another state?

BeneLynk's corporate office is in Sunrise, Florida; however, our team works across the country to assist members in all 50 states + DC.
