Two Options
Medicare has 2 Options after enrolling in Original Medicare Part A and Part B. Both option 1 and option 2 are offered by private insurance companies.
Option 1 is a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan with an option to add a stand-alone Prescription Drug Plan (PDP). Medicare Supplements (Medigap) plans help pay for some out-of-pocket costs not paid by Original Medicare. Supplements are designed to “supplement” whatever Original Medicare Parts A & B do not cover, the supplement will cover. Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (PDP) helps pay for prescription drugs.
Option 2 is a Medicare Advantage Plan with a Prescription Drug plan (PDP) plan built into it. Medicare Advantage plan (Part C) combines Original Medicare Part A & B coverage in one plan and they usually include prescription drug coverage (Part D). Medicare Advantage plans may offer additional benefits like vision, hearing, dental, and fitness coverage.
