What products will Freedom Health offer? Freedom Health will begin by offering a Medicare Advantage product with the ultimate goal to launch three HMO product lines – Commercial, Medicare Advantage, and Medicaid. Commercial plans will include coverage for individuals and families, as well as group plans for small businesses with 1 to 50 employees. These enrollees may also select from plans that qualify with the IRS as “High Deductible Health Plans” for Health Savings Accounts (HSA). To view more information on our commercial plans please click here. Medicare Advantage is an “alternative to traditional Medicare”. Enrollees change the administration of their Medicare benefits to the Medicare Advantage company, therefore diminishing or even eliminating the need for “Medigap” or “Medicare Supplements” and replacing them with our “no premium” plan with added benefits including Part D prescription drug benefits at NO premium, NO deductible, and NO gap, preventive services, and vision care.
