The building blocks

The Four Parts of Medicare

Medicare is made up of several parts, each covering a different piece of your healthcare. Here's what each one does.

Hospital Insurance

Part A · Hospital

Covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care. Most people get Part A automatically at 65 if they're eligible for Social Security — usually premium-free.

Medical Insurance

Part B · Medical

Covers outpatient care, doctor's visits, preventive services, and some home health care. It carries a monthly premium, and you can decline it if you have other qualifying coverage.

Medicare Advantage

Part C · Avantage

Offered by Medicare-approved private insurers. These plans bundle Part A, Part B, and often Part D into a single plan — sometimes with extras like vision and dental.

Prescription Drug

Part D · Rx

Covers prescription medications through private insurers. It can be added to Original Medicare (Parts A & B) for an additional premium, based on each plan's list of covered drugs.

What is Medicare?

Medicare is a federal health insurance program in the United States for people who are 65 or older, along with certain younger people with disabilities or specific medical conditions. It helps cover hospital stays, medical treatments, preventive services, and prescription drugs.

Who is eligible for Medicare?

People aged 65 and older, as well as those under 65 with qualifying disabilities such as end-stage renal disease or ALS. Eligibility details can vary depending on the specific plans.

What are the different parts of Medicare?

Part A — inpatient hospital care, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care.

Part B — outpatient services, doctor visits, preventive care, and some home health services.

Part C (Medicare Advantage) — an alternative to Original Medicare, often adding vision, dental, and drug coverage.

Part D — prescription drug coverage through private plans.

How does Medicare Part D work?

Part D is a standalone prescription drug plan from private insurers approved by Medicare. Each plan has a list of covered drugs (a formulary), and you pay a monthly premium plus copays or coinsurance for your medications.

Do I need to enroll if I have other health coverage?

It depends on the coverage you have. Some people need to enroll when first eligible to avoid later penalties. If you're still working and have employer coverage, it's important to understand how it works with Medicare before deciding — something we're happy to walk through with you.

Can I make changes to my Medicare coverage?

Yes. You can make changes during certain enrollment periods. The Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) generally runs from October 15 to December 7 each year, when you can switch, join, or drop Medicare Advantage or Part D plans.

How do I find doctors and hospitals that accept Medicare?

You can use the provider search tools on the official Medicare website (Medicare.gov) to find healthcare providers and facilities that accept Medicare in your area. We can also help you check whether your preferred doctors are in-network.

What are the costs associated with Medicare?

Costs depend on the parts and plans you choose. Part A is usually premium-free if you or your spouse paid Medicare taxes while working. Part B and other parts involve monthly premiums, deductibles, coinsurance, and copayments. Medicare Advantage and Part D plans each have their own premium structures.
