Home-delivered meals after a hospital stay or for chronically ill beneficiaries.
Meal delivery benefits are offered by select Medicare Advantage plans to support recovery and chronic disease management. After a qualifying hospital stay or for members with certain chronic conditions, plans may provide home-delivered meals for a set period.
Typical benefits include 14–28 meals after hospitalization, or an ongoing meal allowance for members managing diabetes, heart failure, or malnutrition risk. Meals are typically provided through services like Mom's Meals.
This benefit is most common on Special Needs Plans (SNPs) and enhanced-benefit Medicare Advantage plans targeting chronically ill beneficiaries.
