Medicare basics

Medicare vs Medicare Advantage vs Medigap: what’s the difference?

Original Medicare is Part A (hospital) and Part B (medical) from the federal government. A Medicare Advantage plan (Part C) gives you your Part A and Part B coverage through a private company that contracts with Medicare, usually with drug coverage included. A Medigap policy (Medicare Supplement) works alongside Original Medicare and helps pay the costs Original Medicare leaves to you.

Original Medicare

Who runs it
The federal government
Doctor choice
Any provider in the US that accepts Medicare
Drug coverage
Not included; add a Part D plan
Extra benefits
Routine dental, vision and hearing generally not covered
Out-of-pocket costs
Deductibles and coinsurance, with no yearly limit on what you pay

Medicare Advantage (Part C)

Who runs it
Private companies that contract with Medicare
Doctor choice
HMOs generally need in-network providers and referrals; PPOs allow out-of-network care at a higher cost
Drug coverage
Usually included
Extra benefits
Many plans include some dental, vision and hearing benefits; they vary by plan
Out-of-pocket costs
Copays or coinsurance up to the plan’s yearly out-of-pocket maximum

Medigap (Medicare Supplement)

Who runs it
Private insurers; it works with Original Medicare
Doctor choice
Same as Original Medicare
Drug coverage
Not included; add a Part D plan
Extra benefits
Not included; stand-alone dental or vision insurance can be bought
Out-of-pocket costs
The policy helps pay deductibles and coinsurance, depending on the plan

The table is a general guide. Costs and benefits differ from plan to plan, so compare the actual plans offered where you live.

Medigap vs Medicare Advantage: which one fits you?

A Medigap policy keeps Original Medicare and any doctor in the United States who accepts it, helps pay Original Medicare’s deductibles and coinsurance, and pairs with a separate Part D plan. A Medicare Advantage plan puts hospital, medical and usually drug coverage in one plan with a provider network, a yearly out-of-pocket maximum and often some dental, vision or hearing benefits. You cannot have both at the same time. Which one fits you depends on your doctors, your prescriptions and how you prefer to pay; a licensed agent can compare the plans offered in your county with you.

Medicare and VA Benefits: How They Work Together for Veterans

Medicare and VA benefits are separate programs, and generally they can’t pay for the same care, so you choose which one to use each time. Here’s how veterans can decide on Part A and Part B, how VA drug coverage affects Part D, what TRICARE For Life requires, and what to do before 65.

What does Medicare cover?

Original Medicare has two parts. Part A covers hospital stays, skilled nursing care and hospice. Part B covers doctor visits, outpatient care, preventive services and medical equipment.

Prescription drugs come through a Part D plan or a Medicare Advantage plan that includes drug coverage. Routine dental, vision and hearing are generally not covered by Original Medicare; some Medicare Advantage plans include them.

What is the difference between Medicare Advantage and Medigap?

A Medicare Advantage plan (Part C) replaces how you receive your Part A and Part B benefits: a private company that contracts with Medicare delivers them, usually with drug coverage and a provider network.

A Medigap policy (Medicare Supplement) works alongside Original Medicare and helps pay the deductibles and coinsurance Original Medicare leaves to you. You keep any provider in the United States that accepts Medicare. You cannot have both at the same time.

Does it cost anything to work with a Boomers agent?

No. There is no cost to you for a licensed agent’s help; agents are paid by the plan you enroll in. An agent can only enroll you in the plans they are appointed with.

We do not offer every plan available in your area. For information on all of your options, contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-MEDICARE or your local State Health Insurance Assistance Program.

Can I get help with Medicare in Spanish?

Yes. Many of our agents speak Spanish, and some speak Vietnamese or Chinese. Filter Find an Agent by language, or ask for a Spanish-speaking agent when you call.

Our Spanish-language Medicare guide, Información en español, explains enrollment dates and rules for California.
