Medicare Advantage plans (also known as Medicare Part C) are private insurance plans that are approved by Medicare and are an alternative way to receive your Medicare benefits. These plans provide all the same hospital and medical coverage as Original Medicare (Medicare Part A and Part B), but they may also offer additional benefits such as:
• Prescription drugs
• Vision
• Hearing
• Dental services.
Some Medicare Advantage plans may also offer home health care, transportation to medical appointments, and wellness programs.
Each Medicare Advantage plan is different, so it's important to review the specific coverage and benefits offered by the plan you're considering. You can use the Medicare Plan Finder tool on the Medicare website to compare different Medicare Advantage plans available in your area and see which ones might be a good fit for you.
