Medicare Advantage Plan Right For You?
Medicare Advantage offers more than original Medicare.
Improved health: Medicare Advantage plans support your primary care doctor’s care plan. They help ensure you get preventive care like wellness visits, tests, checkups, and vaccines. With Medicare Advantage plans, members are often healthier and need less acute and chronic care.
Cost savings: Medicare Advantage limits the total amount you pay for covered services. With Original Medicare, you pay 20% of the cost for covered services, with no limit to your total costs. You can buy a supplement plan to help with those costs. And you can add a Medicare Part D plan to cover prescription drugs. But a Medicare Advantage plan may offer you everything you need, all in one plan.
This brochure will help you compare Medicare Advantage to original Medicare so that you can find a plan that best fits your needs.
