Florida Blue is introducing two new Medicare Advantage (MA) plans, effective January 1, 2024, that will include significant allowances for dental expenses as well as a flex benefit. The flex benefit supplements the dental allowance included in these MA plans. Both plans will be offered in select counties:
BlueMedicare Preferred will be available exclusively to members who reside in Hillsborough and Polk counties. It will offer a $1,000 flex benefit that supplements the $4,000 dental allowance included in the plan.
BlueMedicare Premier will be offered exclusively to members who reside in Lake, Marion, and Sumter counties. A $500 flex benefit will be included in this plan, in addition to a $3,500 dental allowance.
Members must exhaust their dental allowance before they can use their flex benefit.
