Medicare Advantage (Part C) is a private version of Medicare or another way to get Parts A and B. If you decide to join a Medicare Advantage plan, you don’t need to carry your Medicare card because you’re now getting your hospital and medical coverage from a private insurance company. When you go to the doctor, you’ll simply show your plan card. It’s a convenient way for plan members to get the care and benefits to which they are entitled.

What Does Medicare Advantage Cover?

Part A is known as hospital insurance and provides coverage for inpatient hospitalization and home care, among other services. Part B covers services like doctor’s visits, preventative treatments, outpatient care, and some medical equipment.


Medicare Advantage, which offers the same coverage as Parts A and B, is known as Medicare Part C. Essentially, this is a privatized form of Medicare that offers complete Medicare coverage, often with additional benefits included.

To apply for a Medicare Advantage plan, you must already be enrolled in both parts of Original Medicare. There are specific times when enrollment is open, and you will need to discuss these with your agent, such as the ones with JEMS of Insurance Group. Whether you are enrolling for the first time or switching from another plan to Medicare Advantage, we will be able to guide you every step of the way.

Types of Medicare Advantage Plans

There are different types of plans available, including HMO, PPO, and Special Needs Plans. These types of plans determine your coverage network and how you will access care. The type of plan you have will also determine your out-of-pocket costs.
