Overview of Medicare
Eligibility for Medicare
During your Initial Enrollment Period, you may enroll in a Medicare Supplement Plan, also known as a Medigap Plan. Accordingly, a Medigap plan will cover your medical costs that are not covered by original Medicare. Additionally, you may also consider a Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C) and also enroll in a prescription drug plan (Part D) during your Initial Enrollment Period.
When you can change plans.
If you have enrolled in a Medicare Advantage Plan or a prescription drug plan, you may change plans each year during the Open Enrollment Period. Thus, open enrollments runs from October 15 to December 7 each year. Then if you decide to change your plan, your new plan will become effective January 1 of the following year. In any case, you may change your Medicare Supplement Plan at any time. However, you may be subject to Medical Underwriting to qualify for your new Medigap Plan.
Did you miss your Initial Election Period deadline? Then, you may qualify for a Special Election Period (SEP). Accordingly the SEP allows you to enroll in original Medicare, a Medicare Advantage Plan or a prescription drug plan through a qualifying event. For examples, please click the button below.
Original Medicare Parts A & B
Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance)
Part A covers inpatient hospital stays. In addition, it also covers care in a skilled nursing facility, as well as hospice care, and some home health care.
Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance)
Part B covers certain doctors’ services, outpatient care, medical supplies, and preventive services. Most people will pay a standard Part B premium which varies depending on income.
Medicare Part C (Advantage)
Medicare Advantage Plans are much like regular insurance. Thus, you can select different plan types, such as a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO). Similarly, you can choose a Medicare Medical Savings Account Plan if you prefer. Your monthly premiums will vary based on coverage you select. Likewise, the carrier and geographical location affect premium amounts.
Medicare Advantage Plans may include prescription drug coverage. Additionally, they may also offer supplemental coverage, such as dental care or vision care.
