Frequently Asked Questions About Medicare Advantage Plans
A Medicare Advantage plan combines your Original Medicare coverage (Parts A and B) with additional benefits like prescription drug coverage (Part D) plus dental, vision, and hearing benefits.
These plans are popular because you can get medical, hospital, prescription drug, dental, vision, and hearing benefits – all in one plan. Most of our plans have $0 monthly premium and maximum out-of-pocket costs. Plus, these plans offer other benefits, including allowances for utilities, groceries4, and over-the-counter health items. There's also a variety of options - you can pick the plan that's best for you from HMO, PPO, D-SNP, and C-SNP that are tailored to your specific needs.
Once you've signed up for Original Medicare (Parts A and B), you can enroll in Medicare Advantage during your Initial Enrollment Period. This starts three months before your 65th birthday month and ends three months after it.
You may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period if you experience certain life events, such as moving out of your current plan’s service area or losing your employer-based health coverage.
You can also add, switch, or drop your plan during the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period, from October 15 through December 7 each year.
And the Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment Period – January 1 to March 31 – offers a one-time opportunity to change your plan.
Your specific health needs and your budget are the most important considerations. For example, if you will need care from out-of-network specialists and facilities,3 a Medicare Advantage PPO plan may be the right choice for you because these plans typically let you access care out of network without a referral. Otherwise, an HMO plan may be a better fit.
It's important to note that PPO plans typically have a higher cost than HMO plans. But they are great for someone who wants the flexibility to see any doctor or specialist outside the network and without a referral.
Before signing up for a plan that includes prescription drug coverage, be sure to check if your medication is covered.
