Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C)
Your Medicare, Your Way — With Benefits That Go Beyond the Basics
What Is Medicare Advantage?
Understand your options so you can choose with confidence.
Medicare Advantage Plans — also known as Medicare Part C — are private insurance plans that combine your hospital (Part A) and medical (Part B) benefits into one easy-to-manage plan. Most also include prescription drug coverage, and many offer extras like dental, vision, hearing, transportation, gym memberships, and more. These plans are available through approved insurance companies and often come with low or even $0 premiums depending on where you live. Most Medicare Advantage Plans are county and state specific.
Unlike Original Medicare, which is managed by the federal government, Medicare Advantage plans operate through networks (HMO, PPO, etc.) and may have copays, coinsurance, and referrals. But for many, the convenience and extra benefits make it the right choice. Car accidents happen—but the right insurance coverage ensures you’re financially protected.
