Longevity Health Plan
Founded in 2018, Longevity Health Plan started as an Institutional Special Needs Plan (ISNP), a type of Medicare Advantage health plan that addresses significant unmet needs of institutionalized members who reside in nursing homes. Through rapid growth from 2018 to 2022, we expanded our market footprint and currently offer ISNP Medicare Advantage plans in Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and North Carolina. In 2023, we expanded our service offerings to the broader health plan market. In addition to our existing markets where we are both the ISNP and the care management team, we are now partnering with National Carriers on their offered ISNP plans. We will serve as the care management team overseeing our Carrier partners’ ISNP long-term care institutionalized resident members. The first of these markets went live in Pennsylvania, with several more launching soon. Our organization still offers the ISNP health plan and care management model in certain states, and we now also have available the standalone clinical and quality management product to National Carriers. This allows us to utilize our core skills of supporting clinical post-acute needs of this vulnerable senior population in where Longevity or another Carrier serves as a health plan. Longevity offers an integrated health plan care management platform designed to improve clinical outcomes and reduce unnecessary medical interventions for long-term care beneficiaries living in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). We offer Institutional Special Needs Plans (I-SNP) that are designated Medicare Advantage plans targeted to beneficiaries with Medicare part A & B who require long-term care in institutional settings. Longevity provides an advanced practice practitioner (NP or PA) supported by LHP RNs and other LHP Clinical team members to work with facility staff, physicians, and caregivers to manage member care in place, and improve their clinical outcomes.
