Parts of Medicare

Part A (Hospital Insurance):

Helps cover inpatient care in hospitals, skilled nursing facility care, hospice care, and home health care.

 

Part B (Medical Insurance):

Helps cover:

•  Services from doctors and other health care providers
•  Outpatient care
•  Home health care
•  Durable medical equipment (like wheelchairs, walkers, hospital beds, and other equipment)
•  Many preventive services (like screenings, shots or vaccines, and yearly “Wellness” visits)

 

Part D (Drug coverage):

Helps cover the cost of prescription drugs (including many recommended shots or vaccines). You join a Medicare drug plan in addition to Original Medicare, or you get it by joining a Medicare Advantage Plan with drug coverage. Plans that offer Medicare drug coverage are run by private insurance companies that follow rules set by Medicare.

 

Medicare Supplemental Insurance (Medigap):

Extra insurance you can buy from a private company that helps pay your share of costs in Original Medicare. Policies are standardized, and in most states named by letters, like Plan G or Plan K. The benefits in each lettered plan are the same, no matter which insurance company sells it.
