Medicare is divided into several different programs, or parts.

You will choose to enroll in either Original Medicare, which encompasses Parts A and B, or Medicare Part C (also called Medicare Advantage).

Medicare Part B

Medicare Part B provides for the rest of your non-hospitalization healthcare needs. Under Part B you receive coverage for:

Medically necessary services such as doctor visits, tests, and other services as needed to diagnose or treat your condition

Preventive services like routine screenings, check-ups, vaccinations, and more

Clinical research
Ambulance services
Durable medical equipment
Mental health services

Limited outpatient prescription drugs

Medicare Part C

Medicare Part C, or Medicare Advantage is designed to roll the coverage of Parts A and B into one plan, offered by a private health insurance company that contracts with Medicare.. By law, Advantage plans must offer at least the same coverage as Original Medicare. Other rules may differ, or the network might offer additional benefits. Many Advantage plans also include Part D, or prescription drug coverage.

Common types of Part C plans include:

Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans

Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans

Private Fee-for-Service (PFFS) plans
Special Needs Plans (SNPs)
HMO Point of Service Plans (HMOPOS)
Medicare Medical Savings Account (MMSA)
