Understanding Medicare Coverage
Step 1: Enroll in Original Medicare When You Become Eligible
Original Medicare Includes:
Medicare Part A
Hospital Insurance
Medicare Part B
Medical Insurance
What You Need to Know:
- You will pay a monthly or quarterly premium.
- Freedom to see any doctor who accepts Medicare and those visits covered by Medicare.
- Coverage for inpatient hospital stays and costs associated with hospital care. For example, skilled nursing care facility, home nursing care, hospice care etc.
- Some durable medical equipment such as wheel chairs, hospital beds, power scooters and more.
Important Tip!
Original Medicare typically only covers about 80% of approved costs for Medicare-covered services and supplies. The remaining 20% is usually the responsibility of the the beneficiary!
Now You Need to Select Medicare Coverage that Helps You Cover that 20%
Congratulations on understanding Medicare Parts A and B!
Now, it’s time to make another important decision. You have the option to get additional coverage that is offered by private insurance companies, often called Medicare Advantage (Part C) or a Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) plan. These options can help cover costs not included in Original Medicare, like; copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles.
This is where working with an insurance broker like MRS Insurance is the best choice when it comes to purchasing your insurance plans. We can comparison shop carriers, provide personalized advice, expert guidance, and assistance in navigating complex insurance products to help save you the most money.

- Locking in Benefits: When you initially enroll in Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) plan, you may have access to certain benefits or pricing structures that could change if you switch plans later.
- Coverage Gaps: Delaying enrollment in Medicare coverage can leave you vulnerable to coverage gaps, where you may not have adequate protection against high medical costs.
- Financial Considerations: The cost of Medicare Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement Insurance plans, and prescription drug plans can vary significantly.
It’s important to choose the right plan when you initially enroll, there can be potential problems with switching plans later.
