Medicare Secretly Eases Your Medical Expense Burden
Medicare is divided into several parts, each designed to cover specific healthcare needs:
- Part A (Hospital Insurance): Covers inpatient hospital stays, care in a skilled nursing facility, hospice care, and some home health care.
- Part B (Medical Insurance): Covers certain doctors' services, outpatient care, medical supplies, and preventive services.
- Part C (Medicare Advantage): An alternative to Original Medicare that offers additional benefits through private insurers, often including vision, hearing, and dental coverage.
- Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage): Helps cover the cost of prescription drugs.
By selecting the right combination of these options, you can tailor your coverage to fit your healthcare needs and budget. Many beneficiaries find that Medicare Advantage plans offer enhanced benefits and lower costs compared to Original Medicare1.
