A Simple Overview Of Medicare
Medicare is broken up into separate sections that cover a general area. Since the medical field has gray areas and overlap, so does medicare. We navigate those gray areas for you and ensure your Medicare coverage is set up correctly.
- Medicare Part A primarily covers treatment in hospitals and the costs that come with it. Depending on the medical treatment that is provided at the hospital you will have to pay a deductible.
- Medicare Part B primarily covers insurance outside of hospitals.
- Medicare Part C or a Medicare Advantage Plan as it is commonly called is essentially a customized Medicare Part B. When you get Medicare Part C you still have to pay for Part B, but there is a wide variety of options in regards to the cost, the coverage and additional coverage. For instance, besides medical coverage, you can get dental or hearing and vision coverage.
- Medicare Part D covers prescription drugs.
This is an extremely simplified overview of Medicare. It is an extremely complicated system that also has a large number of deadlines to register. The deadline to register is usually at the beginning of December of the previous year. When you miss deadlines or details in Medicare insurance, the results can be costly.

Frequently Asked Questions For Medicare Supplement Insurance
Am I required to have Medicare supplement insurance?
No, Medicare supplement insurance is not mandatory. There are many advantages to choosing a Medicare supplement policy, but it is not required.
What is the difference between Medicare supplement plans and Medicare Advantage plans?
Medicare supplement plans are add-on insurance policies that cover extra medical expenses and provide benefits that are typically not provided by traditional Medicare plans. Medicare Advantage plans are a singular policy that includes both traditional Medicare coverage and the coverage offered by supplement plans. Medicare supplements are an extra available policy that works along with original Medicare, where Medicare Advantage plans are one policy that replaces traditional Medicare and covers so much more.
Do Medicare supplement plans have prescription drug coverage?
No, Medicare supplement plans do not cover prescriptions. Prescription drug coverage is purchased separately through a Medicare Part D plan.
Can I have a Medicare supplement plan if I already have a Medicare Advantage plan?
No, you cannot have both a Medicare supplement plan and a Medicare Advantage plan. You can choose between one or the other.
How does original Medicare work with Medicare supplement plans to cover my medical bills?
When you see a doctor who accepts Medicare, Medicare will cover its share of the expense. The bill will then go to the Medicare supplement plan, which covers an additional portion of the bill. If anything is not covered by both original Medicare and the Medicare supplement plan, then you will be responsible for paying the remaining amount.
What doctors accept Medicare supplement plans?
Medicare supplement plans are accepted by any doctor who accepts original Medicare. People with Medicare supplement plans can see any doctor they want, and do not need to have a referral to see a specialist.
