Part C - Medicare Advantage

• Medicare Advantage is a Medicare-approved plan from a private company that offers an alternative to Original Medicare for your health and drug coverage.
• These “bundled” plans include Part A, Part B, and usually Part D.
• In most cases, you can only use doctors who are in the plan’s network.
• In many cases, you may need to get approval from your plan before it covers certain drugs or services.
• Plans may have lower out-of-pocket costs than Original Medicare.
• Plans may offer some extra benefits that Original Medicare doesn’t cover—like vision, hearing, and dental services.

1. Part A (Hospital Insurance)
