Medicare is complex and can be confusing. Increasing competition among insurance companies and healthcare providers adds to the complexity of selecting the best option for your individual needs and available budget.
Original Medicare is offered by the federal government and includes both hospitalization and medical coverage. That s usually where the simplicity ends and the complexity begins. Increasingly people are selecting other options to help cover prescription drugs and other medical and health services.
Navigating through the various options can be complex. There are some 3,500 Medicare Advantage (MA) plan offerings nationally. Plans fall under five categories from Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) to Private fee-for service (PFFS) providers. Available choices vary by county and literally can be different based on your Zip Code.
