The Basics

Understanding the Parts of Medicare

Before you can make a smart Medicare decision, you need to understand what you're actually choosing between. Here's a plain-English breakdown of the four parts — no jargon, no agenda.

A

Hospital Insurance

Covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care. Most people pay no monthly premium for Part A if they or their spouse paid Medicare taxes while working.

B

Medical Insurance

Covers outpatient care, doctor visits, medical supplies, and preventive services. Requires a standard monthly premium that can vary based on your income. Part A and Part B together make up Original Medicare.

C

Medicare Advantage

An all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare offered by private companies approved by Medicare. Often includes extra benefits like vision, dental, and hearing. Replaces Parts A and B — not a supplement to them.

D

Prescription Drug Coverage

Adds prescription drug coverage. Can be a standalone plan alongside Original Medicare, or built into a Medicare Advantage plan, known as an MAPD plan. Formularies and costs vary by plan, so what's covered and what you pay depends on which plan you choose.

There is also Medicare Supplement (Medigap) — private insurance that works alongside Original Medicare (Parts A and B) to cover out-of-pocket costs like copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medigap is not the same as Medicare Advantage. Understanding the difference between the two is one of the most important decisions you'll make at 65.
