Types of Kentucky Medicare Health Plans
In Kentucky, there are two main types of Medicare health plans: Medicare Advantage plans and Medicare Supplement plans.
1. Medicare Advantage plans:
These plans are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare and provide all the benefits of Original Medicare (Part A and B), and often may provide additional benefits like prescription drug coverage, vision, dental care, or fitness programs. Several Medicare Advantage plans may also come with no additional premium beyond what a person pays for Medicare Part B, or may include a zero-dollar copayment for certain services. Medicare Advantage plans may have lower out-of-pocket costs and often have a network of providers to choose from.
2. Medicare Supplement plans:
These plans, also known as Medigap plans, are designed to supplement Original Medicare by covering out-of-pocket costs like co-insurance, co-payments, and deductibles. Medigap policies are sold by private insurance companies, but they don’t offer additional benefits like Medicare Advantage plans. Medigap plans may have a higher monthly premium but provide more flexibility when choosing healthcare providers.
Summary
Both Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans vary in their benefits, costs, networks, and availability. It is important to compare plans and choose the one that best suits your needs and budget. Additionally, some Medicare plans may offer prescription drug coverage, known as Medicare Part D, which can help cover the cost of prescription drugs.
