WHAT IS MEDICARE?

Medicare is the federal health insurance program that began in 1965.  It was designed to pay 80% of a person’s medical bills in retirement.  Individuals can begin receiving Medicare at age 65 or after receiving disability income for two years.  There are now four parts to Medicare.  Part A is for inpatient hospital care.  Part A is earned by paying into the system in your working years.  There is no cost for Part A but deductibles and copays are applied.  Part B is for medical services like doctor visits and surgeries.  There is a monthly cost for Part B that many people will have deducted from their Social Security checks each month.  Part C is Medicare Advantage.  This creates a partnership between the federal government and private insurance companies that can cover 100% of a person’s medical needs.  Part D was added in 2006 to cover the cost of prescription drugs.  Both Medicare Advantage and Medicare supplement plans are offered by private insurance companies to offer a higher level of coverage.
