What is a Medicare Advantage Plan?

When you sign up for Medicare, you can choose either a Medicare Advantage Plan or a Medicare Supplement (MediGap) Plan — not both. Both help with costs, but they work very differently.

Medicare Advantage (MA)

Pros:

  • Low or $0 monthly premium
  • Extra benefits like vision, hearing, and dental
  • May give allowances for OTC items or groceries

Cons:

  • You must use doctors in the plan’s network
  • You may pay co-pays or co-insurance
