Never a fee to pre-screen and provide guidance. *See ad below Medicare Advantage plans, also known as “Part C,” are an alternative approach to Medicare and become the primary insurance that combine with traditional Medicare Supplements. When you choose an MA Plan, you are no longer covered by Medicare. MA plans involve (giving up) assigning your Medicare benefits to an insurance company and you no longer have 80% of your benefits paid by Medicare and 20% paid by a Medicare Supplement. Alternatively, you would have specific limited physician/hospital networks with benefit determinations and payments made solely by an insurance company. MEDICARE ADVANTAGE (MA)
