So what is Medicare?
  • Medicare is the Federal Health Insurance program for:
  • People who are 65 or older
  • Certain younger people with disabilities
  • People with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) with permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or a transplant, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

How does Medicare work?
​The different parts of Medicare help cover specific services:
  • Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance)                                                                                                                                                                                      Part A covers inpatient hospital stays, care in a skilled nursing facility, hospice care, and some home health care.

  • Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance)                                                                                                                                                                                         Part B covers certain doctors' services, outpatient care, medical supplies, and preventive health services.

  • Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage Plans)                                                                                                                 Part C is a type of Medicare health plan offered by a private company  that contracts with Medicare.                    Medicare Advantage Plans provide all of your Part A and Part B benefits.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             Medicare Advantage Plans include:
    • Health Maintenance Organizations
    • Preferred Provider Organizations
    • Private Fee-for-Service Plans
    • Special Needs Plans
    • Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans
                       If you’re enrolled in a Medicare Advantage Plan:
​                                               - Most Medicare services are covered through the plan
                                               - Medicare services aren’t paid for by Original Medicare
                                               - Most Medicare Advantage Plans offer prescription drug coverage and follow the same rules as Medicare                                                    Prescription Drug Plans.
  • Medicare Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage)                                                                                                           Part D adds prescription drug coverage to:
    • Original Medicare
    • Some Medicare Cost Plans
    • Some Medicare Private-Fee-for-Service Plans
    • Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans
           
*   These plans are offered by Insurance Companies and other Private Companies that are approved by Medicare.
