I-SNPs are a unique type of Medicare Advantage plan for those with chronic or disabling conditions who need a high level of care. SECUR Advantage (I-SNP) is designed for individuals living in long-term care settings, like nursing facilities and inpatient psychiatric facilities.

SECUR will build on the experience of CareNu's other programs, which coordinate chronic illness care for over 5,000 people. From 2021 to 2023, CareNu's ASSURITY DCE saw significant reductions in emergency room visits and hospitalizations, as a result of its commitment to preventative integrated care.
