MEDICARE SUPPLEMENT PLANS

in California have been the same for several decades, on the other hand Medicare Advantage plans change every year. Medicare Supplement plans rarely change and are federally standardized, meaning a Plan F for a company in California must provide the same benefits as any other plan F in the United States.

MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLANS

which are typically HMO style plans have been popular for the person looking for a low priced plan with good benefits and includes the Part D Rx coverage.

Although with a Medicare Advantage HMO, you will not have freedom of choice with physicians or hospitals, and you still have may have gaps and out-of-pocket costs.  Whereas with a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan you can see any doctor or hospital in the U.S. who accepts Medicare, and the coverage is very comprehensive.

WHAT ARE YOUR COSTS? 

With a Medicare Supplement plan in California you will have a monthly premium for the Supplement.  You will also need to purchase a Medicare Part D Rx plan to cover your prescriptions.  Plan F will cover virtually all of your Medical costs, so you will not have any out of pocket expenses.  The Part D Rx plan will cost approximately $15 – $40 per month, depending on your current medications.

Looking for Medicare Advantage?  With a Medicare Advantage plan including the Health Net HMO plans in certain California counties.  With most Medicare HMO’s you will have office copays, maybe a deductible to satisfy, 20% of  chemotherapy (cancer treatments) costs, but the plan will include the Part D Rx coverage at no additional cost.

Your out of pocket maximum with the Advantage plans typically run between $1,000 – $7,500 per year, which include all of the copayments, percentages and deductibles.  If a member happens to satisfy the “out of pocket maximum” at that point the plan will cover your medical costs at 100% for the balance of the year.

    Hi Debbie, typically Medicare along with the Medicare Supplement pays for the cataract surgery. Although, there are certain specialty lenses which may not be covered. The medical facility or surgeon performing the service will definitely be able to tell you what is and is not covered.

    Thanks … John.

    If I need cataract surgery, what all does my innovative F plan pay? .
