CHP Retiree Advantage (HMO) State of Florida
Capital Health Plan Retiree Advantage (HMO) and Capital Health Plan Retiree Classic (HMO) are retiree plans offered by the State of Florida to Medicare-eligible retirees and their Medicare-eligible dependents. This provides our members the opportunity to participate in their State of Florida-sponsored health plan after retirement and becoming Medicare eligible. These plans provide access to an expansive network of physicians, including exclusive access to the Physician Group of Capital Health Plan located at one of our three health centers.
To be eligible for either plan option, you must be entitled to Medicare Part A, enrolled in Medicare Part B, and live in the Capital Health Plan service area. Retiree Advantage (HMO) and Retiree Classic (HMO) plans will provide all of your Medicare benefits and services, including prescription drug coverage (Medicare Parts A, B, and D). Review our Medicare calendar to attend a seminar, or call our local office to talk to one of our experienced representatives to learn more.
Retiree Advantage Annual Notice of Changes (ANOC) provides details of changed in plan benefits and coverage from one year to the next.
The State of Florida Benefits Summary provides a summary of your plan’s benefits, premium, copayments, and coinsurance information.
A formulary is a list of covered drugs believed to be a necessary part of a quality treatment program. The CHP Retiree Advantage Formulary was selected by CHP in consultation with a team of health care providers. You can also use our online formulary search tool.
Your 2025 CHP State of Florida Retiree Advantage Evidence of Coverage provides details about your Medicare health and prescription drug coverage, explains how to get the care you need, and includes plan conditions and limitations.
Sometimes you are taking a drug that is not on our formulary, and if that is the circumstance please review the Prime Medicare Transition Policy for additional information. During the time when you are receiving a temporary supply of a drug, you should talk with your provider to decide what to do when your temporary supply runs out. You can either switch to a different drug covered by the plan or ask the plan to make an exception for you and cover your current drug. For a temporary supply, please call CHP Member Services.
What’s the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan?
The Medicare Prescription Payment Plan is a new payment option in the prescription drug law that works with your current drug coverage to help you manage your out-of-pocket Medicare Part D drug costs by spreading them across the calendar year (January-December). Starting in 2025, anyone with a Medicare drug plan or Medicare health plan with drug coverage (like a Medicare Advantage Plan with drug coverage) can use this payment option. All plans offer this payment option and participation is voluntary. For more details click HERE.
To sign up for this Medicare Prescription Payment Plan payment option, visit Activate.RxPayments.com or call 877-247-6512 for assistance. You may also download the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan participation request form HERE
To enroll in CHP State of Florida Retiree Advantage, you will need to download and complete the 2025 CHP Retiree Advantage Enrollment Application. Please return the completed enrollment application directly to CHP. You may enroll anytime within 90 days before the effective date of coverage.
You may be able to get Extra Help to pay for your prescription drug premiums and costs. The amount of Extra Help that you can get depends on your income and resources. If you qualify, you will get help paying for your Medicare drug plan's monthly premium and prescription copayments or coinsurance. Your premium generally will be lower if you receive Extra Help from Medicare.
