Sentara Health offers a Dual Eligible Special Needs Plan (DSNP) called Sentara Community Complete (HMO D-SNP), designed for individuals who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. Sentara Health’s DSNP strategy is centered around the "Exclusively Aligned Enrollment" model, which became mandatory in Virginia starting January 1, 2025. This model requires that members who are dual-eligible must receive both their Medicare and Medicaid benefits from the same health plan. Sentara is looking to get DSNIP Alignment of 11,000 Medicaid Members The government recently updated regulations to say that whatever plan a member has for Medicare, they have to use the same insurance company for their Medicaid.
