Four parts.
One clear picture.
Medicare is federal health insurance for people 65 and older, and some younger people with disabilities. It has different parts that cover different types of healthcare services — here's the map.
Hospital
Covers hospital stays, skilled nursing, and hospice care.
Medical
Covers doctor visits, outpatient care, and medical equipment.
Medicare Advantage
The all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare.
Prescription
Prescription drug coverage for the medications you take.
Medicare Advantage vs.
Medicare Supplement
Both paths can work beautifully — for the right person. The difference comes down to networks, premiums, and how you like to use your coverage.
Medicare Advantage
- ✓ Replaces Original Medicare (Parts A & B)
- ✓ Often includes prescription drug coverage
- ✓ May include dental, vision & hearing aids
- ✓ Typically lower monthly premiums
- ✓ Provider networks and prior authorizations
Medicare Supplement
- ✓ Works alongside Original Medicare
- ✓ Helps pay Medicare deductibles & coinsurance
- ✓ No provider networks — see any Medicare doctor
- ✓ Guaranteed renewable
- ✓ Separate Part D needed for prescriptions
Not sure which path fits your doctors, medications, and budget? That's exactly what a free Medicare review is for — we compare plans from multiple carriers, side by side, with no obligation to purchase. Want the fundamentals first? Start with our Medicare education guide.

Let our licensed Medicare experts help you understand your options and find the right plan — Advantage, Supplement, or Part D. No obligation, no pressure.
Many Advantage plans charge a daily copay for the first several days of an inpatient stay. Hospital indemnity insurance is the supplement built to absorb that cost — it pays you a fixed cash benefit per day of admission, on top of whatever the plan pays.
