Medicare is divided into four parts — each covering different healthcare needs. Parts A and B are known as Original Medicare. We help you understand which apply to you and how to maximize your coverage.
Part A covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health services. Most people don't pay a monthly premium.
Part B covers outpatient care, doctor visits, preventive services, and medically necessary services. The standard 2026 monthly premium is $202.50, though there are a number of ways to have it reduced depending on your income and circumstances. Higher earners may pay more due to IRMAA (Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount).
Part C bundles Parts A & B — often adding Part D and extras like dental, vision, and hearing — through a private insurer. Often $0 premium plans available.
ⓘ Important: To enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, you must already have both Medicare Part A and Part B effective dates established, and you must continue to pay your Part B premium to maintain eligibility.
Part D adds prescription drug coverage to Original Medicare. Stand-alone plans are available to complement Parts A & B. Premiums vary by plan and income.
When you can enroll in or change your Medicare coverage depends on which enrollment period applies to you. Missing a window can mean waiting months — or paying a lifelong penalty. Here's a breakdown of each one.
A 7-month window centered on the month you turn 65 — 3 months before, your birthday month, and 3 months after. This is when most people first sign up for Medicare Part A and Part B.
Every fall, anyone with Medicare can switch Medicare Advantage plans, move between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage, or change Part D prescription drug plans. Changes take effect January 1.
If you're already enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan, this window lets you switch to a different Medicare Advantage plan or drop back to Original Medicare (with or without a Part D plan) one time.
Certain life changes — moving to a new address, losing employer coverage, qualifying for Medicaid or Extra Help, or a plan leaving your area — can open a special window to enroll or switch plans outside the usual times.
Enrollment rules can be confusing, and timing mistakes can be costly. James and Krysti will help you figure out exactly when — and how — you can enroll or make changes, at no cost to you.
Two very different ways to get your Medicare coverage — each with real trade-offs. We help you figure out which one makes sense for your life and budget.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer. The best choice depends on your doctors, your medications, how often you travel, and your comfort with monthly costs vs. out-of-pocket expenses. James will walk you through both options side-by-side — at no cost — so you can decide with confidence.
Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans are standardized by the federal government — every insurer must offer the same benefits for each plan. The difference is price and carrier. Here's what each plan covers.
