Confused on Part A being free and Kaiser Senior Advantage Basic(HMO)

Hello all,
I am doing research for my dad who is turning 65 in 2 months and I’m so confused on how part A is covered. He wants to enroll in the Kaiser Senior Advantage Basic Plan(HMO)
I called the SSA and they said that he qualifies for Part A for free. However, in the Kaiser plan benefits book, it says that he still have to pay for hospital stay.
Does part A from SSA overwrites the Part A in the Kaiser plan?
