Medicare Advantage

Part A: Hospital Medicare

Part A is Hospital insurance and helps cover cost if you are staying in a hospital, skilled nursing facility or hospice care.

Part B: Medical Medicare

Part B is Medical insurance and helps cover cost for doctor services, outpatient care, durable medical equipment and other medical services. If you enroll in a Medicare Advantage Plan you must continue to pay your Part B premium.

Part C: Medicare Advantage

Part C also known as Medicare Advantage. You still enroll in Part A and Part B, but you receive all your benefits through one plan instead of through Original Medicare. Plus, these plans often have additional benefits that Original Medicare does not offer.

Part D: Prescriptions

Medicare Part D is Prescription Drug coverage and helps cover the cost of many outpatient prescription drugs. If you enroll in a Medicare Advantage Plan drug coverage is usually included, otherwise it is offered through insurance companies as a separate plan.
