If Alzheimer's patient is in assisted living and on Medicaid, do they still need Silverscript?

My mom is in a NH & on Medicaid, & still has SilverScript Basic (PDP). Rx's go through the NH network pharmacy. SliverScript has a pretty tight formulary. This from a recent missive from SS "For a resident of long term care facility, SilverScript basic (PDP) is required to provide at leas a 91 day supply and may be up to a 98 day supply, consistent with the depending increment, with refills provided, if needed."

Mom fell last year and it seemed that the meds needed immediately after the fall (she stayed @ the NH, did not go to the hospital for a stay or "observation")
went through SilverScript. They do love sending mail - could do a small folder just for what is mailed from them!

TY, I will check.

Bunnyo, more and more states are allowing it under the Medicaid waiver program. Check your state for changes that may affect you.

I didn't know you could be on Medicaid and have AL.

Silverscript is for supplemental coverage on mediCARE part D plans. Once on medicAID, supplemental coverage is not necessary.
