Medicare Advantage Plans

For those 65 and older (or under 65 with certain disabilities), Medicare Advantage (Part C) is
a comprehensive alternative to Original Medicare. These plans are offered by private insurers
approved by Medicare and often include additional benefits such as dental, vision, hearing,
prescription drugs, transportation, fitness memberships, and even over-the-counter
allowances. Many Medicare Advantage plans have low or $0 premiums, making them both
affordable and robust. By working with a knowledgeable agent, clients can compare different
plans to find the one that best fits their health needs, lifestyle, and budget. Medicare
Advantage provides peace of mind, knowing that health care is covered in retirement with
added benefits that Original Medicare doesn’t provide.
 

Example: Robert, age 70, enrolls in a Medicare Advantage plan with a $0 premium. In
addition to hospital and medical coverage, his plan includes dental checkups, vision
exams, hearing aids, gym access, and prescription coverage — benefits Original
Medicare wouldn’t have provided.
