Montana Senior Health Care Plans (MT)

The original Medicare Plan is a pay-per-visit health plan that allows a beneficiary to all healthcare providers that accept Medicare nationwide. However, there are some costs, referred to as coverage "gaps" that are not covered. This is where a Medicare Advantage plan comes in handy.

Part A of Medicare covers hospitalization and is the lowest level of coverage, automatically provided by the federal government as a social benefit. Part B is optional medical insurance, and availing involves a monthly payment that is deducted from Social Security benefits. Part C is insurance coverage for prescription drugs, and was added as an option to Medicare in January 1, 2006 as part of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Modernization and Improvement Act (MMA) passed by Congress in 2003. Medicare Advantage plans fall under the provisions of Plan C, although not all Medicare Advantage plans actually cover prescription drugs.

Stand-alone Medicare prescription drug plans are also available, but bundled Medicare Advantage plans with prescription drug coverage often cost lower in the long run.
