Medicare Advantage Plans are another way to get Part A & Part B coverage. Medicare Advantage Plans are often referred to as "Part C" or "MA Plans." Most Advantage Plans DO include drug coverage (Part D). You must have Part A & Part B effective dates in order to get a Medicare Advantage Plan.
These plans typically operate within a network, so it is important that your plan works with your provider in order to keep costs down. All of the plans are county driven, meaning that the county you reside in might only offer 5 plans, so those are the plans you have to choose from.
Joining A Medicare Advantage Plan
Medicare Advantage Plans vary per county that you reside in. If the county you live in only offer 5 plans, that's all you have to choose from. You MUST have the date of Part A and/or Part B coverage start date, which can be found on your Medicare Card (red, white & blue) in order to enroll.
