Medicare Advantage Plans, sometimes called "Part C" or "MA Plans," are considered an “all in one” alternative to Original Medicare. They are offered by private companies approved by Medicare. If you join a Medicare Advantage Plan, you still have Medicare. However, you will receive most of your Part A and Part B coverage from your Medicare Advantage Plan, and includes Medicare prescription drug (Part D).
Medicare pays a fixed amount for your care every month to the companies offering Medicare Advantage Plans. These companies must follow rules set by Medicare. However, each Medicare Advantage Plan can charge different out-of-pocket costs and have different rules for how you receive services.
