What is Medicare Advantage?

An option for receiving your Medicare benefits through a private insurer.

This option might be good for you if:

  • You want to receive Part A hospital, Part B medical and often Part D prescription drug coverage together in one plan.

  • You want predictable costs and a firm limit on what you pay out-of-pocket for medical expenses each year.

  • You value coverage that typically includes extra benefits like dental, vision, hearing and wellness.

Keep in mind

  • Medicare Advantage plans typically come with a network contracted providers.

  • Some plans may give you the ability to use out-of-network providers at low or no extra cost.

  • You must continue to pay your Medicare Part B premium.

  • Depending on the plan, you may pay a separate premium to a private insurance company.
