One plan, one card, one network to verify.

Medicare Advantage

Medicare Advantage plans replace how your Original Medicare benefits are delivered, usually adding drug coverage and extras. The trade-off is a network and plan-specific rules, so the details matter.

What to understand

  • Networks

    HMO and PPO structures decide which doctors and hospitals are covered, and at what cost.

  • Out-of-pocket maximum

    Advantage plans cap your annual in-network spending, which Original Medicare alone does not.

  • Extra benefits

    Many plans add dental, vision, hearing or fitness benefits. These vary widely by plan and year.

  • Prior authorization

    Some services require plan approval before they are covered.

Questions worth asking

  • Is every doctor I want to keep in this plan's network?
  • What happens if I need care while traveling?
  • How does the plan handle my specific prescriptions?
  • What changed in this plan compared with last year?
