Meal Delivery
Home-delivered meals for members who are homebound or need nutritional support.
If you’re caring for a SCAN member with a chronic condition, you may be able to have fully prepared meals delivered to their doorstep. These home-delivered meals are specifically designed to make your job a little easier by helping maintain a nutritionally balanced lifestyle for the SCAN member you provide care for.
- $0 per meal
- Health specific menu options (nine health support menus, e.g., lower sodium, diabetic-friendly, etc.)
- Members must meet specific criteria and have one or more of the following conditions: cancer, ESRD, diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, congestive heart failure, dementia, Parkinson’s Disease, or for a condition that requires the member to remain at home for a period of time.
Meal delivery is for up to 28 days (up to 84 meals per year), so you don’t have to worry about grocery shopping or planning and preparing meals to support chronic condition management for a SCAN member.
Additional Medical and Supplemental Benefits Beyond Medicare
A lot goes in to staying healthy. And SCAN Medicare Advantage plans offer plenty of extra benefits to help you take care of yourself. For example, our Medicare Advantage plans have dental and vision coverage, as well as prescription drug coverage. But we also offer extra benefits like transportation to appointments, discounts on fitness tools, and gym memberships. It's all part of SCAN's mission to help you stay as healthy and independent as possible.
Not all benefits are available on all SCAN plans. Check your Evidence of Coverage to see exactly what your plan includes.
