Medigap, also known as Medicare Supplement Insurance, is a type of private health insurance designed to help cover some of the out-of-pocket costs that Original Medicare (Parts A and B) doesn’t cover, such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles
Here are some key points about Medigap:
 
  • Eligibility: To purchase a Medigap policy, you must be enrolled in Medicare Part A and Part B.
  • Coverage: Medigap policies can help pay for costs like hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice care, and some home health care. Some plans also cover emergency medical costs during foreign travel.
  • Standardized Plans: There are 10 standardized Medigap plans available, labeled A through N. Each plan offers a different level of coverage, but the benefits of each plan are the same regardless of the insurance company selling it.
  • Enrollment: The best time to buy a Medigap policy is during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period, which starts the month you turn 65 and are enrolled in Part B. During this period, you have a guaranteed right to buy any Medigap policy sold in your state, regardless of your health1.
Medigap policies are sold by private insurance companies, and the costs can vary depending on the plan and the insurer

A Medicare Advantage Plan (also known as Medicare Part C) is an alternative to Original Medicare offered by private insurance companies that contract with Medicare. These plans provide all your Part A (Hospital Insurance) and Part B (Medical Insurance) benefits, and often include additional benefits not covered by Original Medicare.
 
Here are some key features of Medicare Advantage Plans:
 
  • Bundled Coverage: Medicare Advantage Plans typically bundle Part A, Part B, and often Part D (prescription drug coverage) into one plan.
  • Additional Benefits: Many plans offer extra benefits such as dental, vision, hearing, and wellness programs.
  • Provider Networks: These plans usually have networks of doctors and hospitals that you must use to get the lowest costs. Some plans require referrals to see specialists.
  • Cost Structure: Medicare Advantage Plans may have different out-of-pocket costs compared to Original Medicare. They often include an additional monthly premium on top of the Part B premium.
  • Types of Plans: There are several types of Medicare Advantage Plans, including Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs), Private Fee-for-Service Plans (PFFS), Special Needs Plans (SNPs), and Medical Savings Account Plans (MSAs).
Medicare Advantage Plans can be a good option if you prefer having all your Medicare benefits bundled into one plan with additional coverage options. However, it’s important to compare plans and consider factors like costs, coverage, and provider networks to find the best fit for your needs.

A Part D Prescription Drug Plan is an optional program that helps cover the cost of prescription medications. These plans are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare.
Here are some key points about Part D:
 
  • Eligibility: To join a Part D plan, you must be enrolled in Medicare Part A and/or Part B.
  • Coverage: Part D plans cover both brand-name and generic prescription drugs. Each plan has a formulary, which is a list of covered medications. The formulary can vary from plan to plan.
  • Costs: Costs for Part D plans include a monthly premium, an annual deductible, and copayments or coinsurance for medications. The specific costs depend on the plan you choose.
  • Enrollment: You can enroll in a Part D plan during your Initial Enrollment Period, which starts three months before you turn 65 and lasts for seven months. There is also an Annual Enrollment Period from October 15 to December 7 each year.
  • Late Enrollment Penalty: If you don’t enroll in a Part D plan when you’re first eligible and don’t have other creditable prescription drug coverage, you may have to pay a late enrollment penalty if you join a plan later.
Part D plans can be standalone plans that add drug coverage to Original Medicare, or they can be included in Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C) that offer prescription drug coverage.
