Did you know that if you have health coverage, you don’t have to sign up for Medicare when you turn 65, and you’re exempt from penalties?

This means that if you want to switch to Medicare after you’re 65, you don’t have to pay a penalty for waiting.

Medigap plans help fill "gaps" in Original #Medicare. Original Medicare does not pay for everything, and that's why it's essential to consider a Medigap plan to help pay for the remaining health care cost, such as:
✅ Copayments
✅ Coinsurance
✅ Deductibles

#Medicare Advantage Plans are all in one alternative to Original Medicare. These plans are provided by Medicare-approved private companies. If you select a Medicare Advantage Plan, you still have Medicare, but with additional benefits that Part A and Part B don't cover.

[The Fussell Group @FussellGroupIns]

If you receive VA benefits, you can still enroll in #Medicare when you turn 65. The two programs work alongside each other, giving you broader options. For example, care at a VA facility will be covered by your VA benefits, whereas Medicare will cover care at a non-VA facility.

#Medicare Part D is not included with all Medicare plans; however, it is an optional benefit offered to anyone who qualifies for Medicare. Prescription drug plans are standardized to have at least two prescription drugs in each of the most commonly prescribed categories.

[The Fussell Group @FussellGroupIns]

#Medicare Part D coverage is included in or can be added to the following 5 Medicare packages:
✅ Original Medicare
✅ Medicare Advantage
✅ Some Medicare Cost Plans
✅ Some Medicare Private-Free-For-Service Plans
✅ Medicare Medical Savings Account Plans

[The Fussell Group @FussellGroupIns]

#Medicare Advantage provides the same coverage as Original Medicare, but these plans may offer additional coverage for dental, vision, hearing, and prescription drugs. These plans are commonly in the form of HMOs, PPOs, or PFFS.
