Medicare Basics

Understanding Medicare is crucial for making informed decisions about your healthcare. A Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plan (MAPD) is a coordinated insurance option that combines Medicare Part A (hospital insurance), Part B (medical insurance), and often Part D (prescription drug coverage) into a single plan. It's offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare. These plans offer an all-in-one solution, simplifying healthcare coverage by bundling various services under a single policy, and they often involve network restrictions for healthcare providers. MAPD plans aim to provide individuals with a more inclusive and convenient alternative to traditional Medicare coverage.

Beyond routine medical checkups, prioritizing your health involves caring for vital aspects such as dental, vision, and hearing health. Original Medicare (Part A & B) does not include coverage for regular dental and eye exams or routine hearing exams and hearing aids. Supplemental dental, vision, and hearing coverage becomes crucial to ensure comprehensive health protection and manage your budget effectively. 

Prescription Drug Plans (PDPs) are standalone insurance plans to provide coverage for prescription medications. PDPs are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare, PDPs work alongside Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage Plans. Individuals can obtain prescription drug coverage by enrolling in a PDP, which helps manage the costs of prescription medications. These plans vary in terms of covered medications, costs, and participating pharmacies. It's essential for individuals to carefully review and select a PDP that aligns with their specific medication needs and preferences.
