Medicaid plans

UnitedHealthcare Community Plan - Heritage Health

UnitedHealthcare Community Plan - Heritage Health is for Nebraska children, families, pregnant women and adults who meet income requirements. We also offer extra support to adults with special health care needs or a disability. Members can still choose their own doctor.

Dual Special Needs plans

Dual Special Needs plans (also called Dual Health plans or D-SNPs for short) are for people who have both Medicaid and Medicare. Dual plans cover most doctor visits, hospital stays and prescription drugs. They offer many extra benefits beyond those you get with either Original Medicare or Medicaid.

UnitedHealthcare offers Individual & Family ACA plans in Nebraska. They’re designed to give you the coverage you need without breaking the bank.

Choose from plans in the Bronze, Silver and Gold metal levels. They each come with a variety of benefits, including reliable support from our customer service experts.
