BIO Local Contact
I’m Sandy Robar, the Sales Manager for Humana in
South Dakota, Nebraska, and NW Iowa. I live in Sioux
Falls, SD, and have worked for Humana for ten years.
I work in conjunction with Todd Koland and Richard
Collier from the FMO channel, and Bryan Rizzo and
Courtney Sweet from the Independent channel.
We’re excited about the 2018 benefits and look for-
ward to doing business with you this AEP. I can help
you with items such as MAPA, provider look-up, cus-
tomer service, and supplies.
We are offering a new LPPO in SD that includes a
$3000 MOOP, $100 per admit hospitalization, $0 PCP,
and $25 Specialist. We have added Minnehaha in our
HMO footprint and reduced the PCP visit to $0 and
RX deductible to $150.00. One other new addition is
our DE-SNP HMO in Minnehaha County that will give
the member a potential $0 premium along with many
$0 copays for medical benefits.
This will be an excellent selling season; please contact
me with any questions you may have.
Happy Selling!

DE SNP—Stands for Dual Eligible Special Needs Plan. These plans can be sold to beneficiaries who are entitled to both Medicare A&B and certain levels of Medicaid. They will offer the opportunity of enhanced benefits by combining those available through Medicare and Medicaid.
Note: This is not a chronic SNP. Qualification for this plan is not derived from the beneficiary’s health.
Dual Eligible SNP JOB AID What is a DE SNP?
What makes a DE SNP different than a regular plan?
There are no co-pays, and extra benefits included. Please see plan document for full list.
What Medicaid levels qualify member for Humana DE SNP in SC?
Have member information ready: Either their Medicaid Member ID # or their SSN and DOB
Call Humana Agent Support at: 1-800-309-3163, and follow the prompts for Medicaid Eligibility Verification. Be sure the call rep gives you the actual level of eligibility (all numbers and letters), and then use the guide above to determine if their level of eligibility qualifies them to be placed on the DE SNP Plan.
How can you find out what level of Medicaid a member has?
QMB or QMB+
PCAT-32 QMB
PCAT-80 SSI
PCAT-32 (not listed as QMB) may possibly qualify but read the following note:
SPECIAL NOTE: If your member has a Medicaid eligibility level of PCAT-32 they may be able to be accepted into a Humana DE SNP Plan. Unfortunately, the only way to know if they qualify for the plan is to complete an application and submit it to Humana. At that time a special team manually checks the record to see if the member is able to be enrolled into the DE SNP plan. If they qualify they will be enrolled. If they do not, they will be sent a rejection letter.
This manual process can take up to two weeks to complete. Because of that, if you are in the second half of the month and your member has a PCAT-32 (not listed as QMB) eligibility level it may be in their best inter-est to first enroll them into a regular HMO plan (if it meets their needs, and their provider is in network). Submit that application, and wait at least a day (to ensure wires don’t get crossed in the Enrollment Dept.) and then take an application for the DE SNP and submit it. Following this process will ensure that even if the member is denied for the DE SNP they will at least have a plan (the regular HMO) at the start of the following month.
