Understanding Medicare
Medicare has 4 Parts, each with its own focus
A
Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance)
Provides coverage for hospital stays and inpatient care, including skilled nursing facilities. It ensures access to essential services when needed most.
B
Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance)
Covers outpatient services, doctor visits, preventive care, and durable medical equipment. Helps maintain your health and catch issues early.
C
Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage)
Offered by private insurers, these plans bundle Part A & B and often include dental, vision, and hearing for more comprehensive coverage.
D
Medicare Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage)
Provides access to medication coverage through approved Medicare drug plans. Essential to avoid extra costs on prescriptions.
