Medicare Advantage (Part C) and Other Medicare Health Plans
U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
Medicare health plans are another way to get Part A (Hospital Insurance) and Part B (Medical Insurance) benefits instead of Original Medicare. There are several types of plans, including Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C). Plans must follow CMS marketing rules when contacting prospective members. Beyond Medicare Advantage, the broader 'Medicare health plans' category includes Medicare Cost Plans, Demonstrations/Pilot programs, and PACE.
