Medicare Part C, or Medicare Advantage, is Medicare coverage offered through private insurance companies. This is an “all in one” alternative to Original Medicare where all parts of Medicare are bundled together (Part A, Part B, and most of the time Part D) into one specific plan. Most Medicare Advantage plans will require you to stay within a specific doctor network to receive coverage for non-emergency care and you may be required to get a referral to see a specialist. These plans could be lower in premium compared to Medicare Supplements but may have higher out of pocket costs. Also, Medicare Advantage plans could offer extra benefits that Original Medicare does not cover such as dental, vision, and hearing.
