I recently worked in a hospital; advantage plans always denied their members to go to acute rehabilitation, even if the attending MD thought it was the most appropriate level. They would only approve nursing homes, and only a few days. All discharge planners where I worked dreaded making referrals for patients on advantage plans because of tiling approval process (closed on weekends) and the frequent denials. Then, the patients a f families could not understand why the delay. It was their crappy insurance that they were conned into taking. They never knew the down side because the insurance states they cover everything that Medicare covers (lie). That has been my observation. I recommend to my family and friends to stay with traditional Medicare with a supplement.

@davenone7312 2 года назад

Good info on denials within an Advantage plan. Plus I learned you cannot simply go back to a medi-gap plan (underwriting) issues

@debbiesmyth9206 2 года назад

What do you mean by a "supplement" isn't that what Medicare advantsge plans are? I'm still confused

@debbiesmyth9206 2 года назад

I'm turning 65 in January 2022. I am disabled so I've been on Medicare for a few years. I currently am in a Medicare advantage plan. My income is very low. I only get $840/MO so what is the best f way for me to go? My one time open enrollment chance will end I believe three months after my 65th birthday. Am I correct? I need a plan that gives me the best coverage with the least out of pocket. I'm so confused.

@debbiesmyth9206 2 года назад

What would it cost to stay with traditional Medicare abd add a supplement? By supplement do you mean med gap plan,?

@debbiesmyth9206 2 года назад

@CatLady I live in Missouri. I've tried applying for medicaid along with my social Security disability but becausrbim married and they go by both of our incomes i dont qualify for SNAP benefits or medicaid, except medicaid does help with a small portion of my prescription costs. That's the only help I get. My husband is also disabled and our combined monthly income is under $1700. By the time we pay our rent and utilities and other monthly bills. We have less than $200 for food, gas, prescriptions, and doctors office copays. It's getting harder and harder. We have to depend on local food pantries if we want to eat. Somebody really needs to do something to fix our country. I don't care if it's the Democrats or the Republicans. Jystvas Ling as SOMEBODY does something. We senior citizens who worked our entire lives ( I've worked since I was 14) and now because we are older and have disabilities we are forgotten about and they've made it impossible for us to get any help. Yet they talk about helping people pouring into our country from other countries. What about the loyal Anetican people who were born and raised here and worked all their lives and paid their dues?

As I understand it, a switch from traditional Medicare + supplement (mine is Plan G) to any Advantage plan is a downgrade, so is always possible. But a switch from Advantage back to traditional Medicare + a supplement is an upgrade, which subjects people to medical underwriting. Be careful what your original choice is, upon first eligibility, because downgrading to Advantage is pretty easy, but upgrading to Medicare + a supplement (MegiGap) can be difficult and expensive.

@douglasjensen8986 Год назад

Medical underwriting is not allowed in MA (and perhaps in some other states).

Very clear and comprehensive comparison of Medicare Advantage and Medigap plans. I think the presentation was extremely fair to both plans. I think most people could benefit from watching this video at least two times. My takeaway is that Medigap plans are the best approach if you can afford it, but Medicare Advantage plans can still give very good coverage if you can't afford Medigap. Superb job. Incredibly helpful. You provide a very useful service. You are a very good teacher.

This is a great explanation of Medicare Advantage. Most channels I see covering Medicare mostly talk about the medigap plans only vaguely mentioning the Advantage in a negative fashion. That said I have trouble understanding how people don’t understand the hmo/ppo aspects of the Advantage plans. Most employer provided insurance are hmo/ppo. Co pays, out of pocket expenses, co insurance and prior approval requirements can’t be a surprise to most people.

The best Medicare in my area is Kaiser's Advantage plan, not just because it saves a huge amount of money, but rather because it is an integrated system where things don't fall through the cracks and the staff are all direct employees so there is no fee-for-service care, nobody is incentivized to perform unnecessary procedures or office visits and a lot of stuff can be handled online. As a retired physician who spent over 40 years in health care, they get my vote.

@alaplex100 2 года назад

Spot on. Exactly what I said in my comment. These agents always refer to the insurance plans and never discuss alternatives like Kaiser.

@jameswedel6916 Год назад

I will retire at the end of the year and still need to sign up for part B. I’ve been under Kaiser for over 30 years and have wondered about staying with them. This tells me some of what I’ve wanted to know.

@TheHydred Год назад

@@jameswedel6916 So I too have been with kaiser since I was injured and paralyzed almost 30 years ago. I've started receiving SSDI and will be auto enrolled in medicare come october. I've been seeing how advantage plans are more negative than positive and was swayed to highly consider original medicare. My entire medical history is all through kaiser. I need DME coverage because of my ongoing medical supplies set up through kaiser but I'm looking for a physiatrist with a sub specialty in spinal cord injury. I've been told to check out Sharp. Seems like a no brainer to me now. But I'll continue the research.

@Lili-xq9sn 4 месяца назад

Kaiser was great for me until I became disabled with a serious little-known illness. It seems HMOs are great for all people -- because they make more money not treating you. PPOs are better for people who are less healthy -- they make more $ from now much treatment you get.

@@BoomerBenefits In my case, I went with an Advantage Plan offered by the same hospital system and covered my specific doctor that I already have. I've spoken with my doctor, and they are aware that I will have to try and stay within the scope of the insurance coverage that I have when available. Right now I am extremely healthy for my age (65 - most people think I'm in my late 40's). But I will monitor my health closely as I age, and may need to make the switch to a Supp. plan if necessary. Of course I know that can be a gamble, but cost is a major issue for us right now... Thanks You.

I've had a 5 star-rated (by CMS) Medicare Advantage Plan since turning 65 and going on Medicare, and I (mostly) like it. Have had it for 5 years. BUT, if you get an Advantage Plan, don't get less than a 4 star plan. 5 Star is the best, but there are only 2 of them in my state. THESE RATINGS ARE SO IMPORTANT AS QUALITY INDICATORS, yet most people don't pay attention to them and choose a Plan only by premium! My opthalmologist actually remarked to me recently, "You have very good health insurance!" (I was surprised at his remark because I don't think we were even discussing insurance at the time, lol.)

@8sun52 2 года назад

Assuming that all five star rated Advantage Plans are actually up to snuff, are they ubiquitous; which would be necessary from a medical standpoint for seniors.?

@sinebar Год назад

That's the problem. Some states don't have 5 star MA plans so seniors end up on a low rated plan and regret it later on.

@BoomerBenefits 2 года назад

Hi there - We're happy to hear you found our video to be helpful! You're very welcome :) To answer your question, the best time to apply for a Medigap plan is during your 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment. This enrollment period is based around your Part B effective date. When you apply for a Medigap plan during those six months a private insurance carrier cannot ask you health questions on the Medigap application. Therefore, you can purchase a Medigap plan without a problem. However, if you apply for a Medigap plan outside that six month window, you will go through medical underwriting in most states. If you cannot answer no to the health questions, then you will likely be denied a Medigap plan or be charged with a higher premium. Be sure to check out our RU-vid video titled, Your One Time Medigap Open Enrollment Period

@dArtagnan712 2 года назад

@@BoomerBenefits Thank you for your quick and thoughtful response. If I stop working and start Medicare Pt B at, for example, age 72, will I have another 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment period, at that time, or do I only get the one at age 65?

@BoomerBenefits 2 года назад

Your 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment is based around your Part B effective date! So when you enroll in Part B at age 72, then that is when your Medigap Open Enrollment will begin.

I'm normally someone who doesn't get freaked out about stuff, but I was really stressed out when it came to signing up for Medicare, and because I was so freaked out about it, I just wanted to get it over with. I ended up signing for an Advantage plan. I'm still not sure if I made the right decision or not, but I've decided to just live with my decision. Life is a crapshoot and I know that. So far so good, but I'm only 2 months into it.

@BoomerBenefits 2 года назад

Hi Elizabeth - If this is your first Medicare Advantage plan right out of the gate of turning 65, you will likely qualify for a Trial Right 1. Trial Right 1 gives you 12 months to try out a Medicare Advantage plan. Within that 12 months, you can drop your Medicare Advantage plan and return to Original Medicare and pick up a Medigap + Part D plan without underwriting.

@@9liveslisa Heck, you are not alone...As a retiree, thousands of my colleagues did just like that, sticking with the company provided retiree plan, which is basically an Advantage PPO plan. We have to pay drug D and dental premium separately, though it is the maximum out of pocket limit is $2000. So not all is bad, at least when bad lucks strike. If you are healthy, the advantage plan maybe just fine for you, and you may not feel any inconvenience or out of pocket costs. If you are not quite healthy, and your budget allows, maybe you want to consider swiitching to the original plan and medigap plan.

Thank you for your informative videos. I’m in a slightly different situation with Medicare advantage. I’m currently covered by my former employer (retired) and will be moving to Medicare next year. My current benefits are great and when I turn 65 employer offers two Advantage plans. One, via Anthem Blue Cross allows no cost out of network visits, all 50 states, part B premiums are reimbursed and copays (except for $5) as well. Clearly it’s not like the advantage plans offered to public…so I guess my question is, have you had experience with employer/union negotiated Advantage plans? I’ve read entire benefits/coverage document and it appears to be pretty comprehensive. One can take a payment in lieu of coverage but I think it makes sense to go with the employer negotiated plan.

@jdwhitty6035 2 года назад

Drug coverage is typically stronger (look for lower Rx copays, no donut hole / coverage gap?) through employer sponsered coverage ED. Go with employer coverage all the way. Always check with the employer about use it or lose it. If you leave it, can you get it back? Cheers!

@MaryAnnH1 2 года назад

@@jdwhitty6035 I agree with the previous person, use your employer plans rather than Medicare Advantage plans (or Part C). In my opinion, Part C plans are trickier to navigate and I think most insurers count on that confusion to hoodwink people into believing they (you, the consumer) have done all the due diligence necessary and they have found the "diamond" of all Part C plans. I imagine there are some who can afford the high out of pocket caps, but I can't. I don't know many who can. That's my two cents. :-)

@Zhenn9413 2 года назад

As a provider I find Medicare Advantage plans will deny authorization for many services. This is particularly true for physical and speech therapy for stroke patients. The insurance must make a profit somehow. The savings can come from denying care to the most “expensive”patients. Nothing is worse than opening a new patient chart and seeing they have an advantage plan. We know right then and there that we will have to request authorization over and over again. And the request will take time to get and then only a little bit of treatment will be authorized. And then we start all over again. This is why we call it Medicare Disadvantage

This was extremely helpful. Watching all those tv commercials the advantage plans seem so attractive. For the first 2 years on medicare I was very healthy and so was a bit miffed at how much I had to shell out for a medigap plan monthly premium, plus the $203 medicare deductible which I never met! I thought I wanted less or 0 premiums, but this year alone I'm now in the process of having to see a knee specialist and quite possibly (probably!) a new full knee replacement by next spring. I've had to see a podiatrist a few times and my primary care a few times for things other than my yearly physical which also included x-rays on one visit. After watching this video and doing a little more research I think I'm going to just stay with my medigap G plan.

@alansach8437 2 года назад

Advantage plans are great for healthy people. Medigap plans are great for sick people. Can't simplify it more than that! Since most people get sick sooner or later (unless they simply keel over and drop dead), IMO, since it is complicated to make the switch to Medigap (medical underwriting, exams, pre-existing etc.), it is wise to suck it up from the beginning (when you turn 65) and pay the extra premiums so you have the coverage when needed. The biggest downside of Medigap is the lack of dental and vision, which is what younger, healthier retirees use the most. But that will matter less down the road when you have some serious, chronic illness that is sucking away deductibles, co insurance and out of network costs. You would be surprised how often in network just doesn't "provide that service". All I can say is if you are a retiree, are going to be one soon, or just care for someone who is, vote for people in November who support expanding original Medicare to cover vision and dental. No excuse that it doesn't, except private insurance lobbying.

Medigap plans travel with you! So, if you were to purchase a Medigap plan once you turn 65 years old, you can visit any doctor in the U.S. and use your Medigap plan as long as the doctor accepts Medicare. If a doctor accepts Medicare, they must accept a Medigap plan. Check out our video, Are Medigap Plans Worth the Money?

As a disabled vet, I use the free VA for all my medical needs and drugs. I have a civilian doctor that I've only seen one time for my initial consultation. I have medicare parts B, N, and D. Maybe an advantage plan would save me money seeing I don't plan on using it.

@lic9863 2 года назад

I assume that letter N stands for Medicare Supplement Plan N? If that's the case, based on your circumstances this is an overkill. You don't need it, nor do you need a Medicare Advantage plan. If you want to continue seeing your civilian doctor for follow-up visits, those are covered by Medicare and your copays will be anywhere from $5 to $10, assuming you already met your Part B deductible. You will pay more for those visits with your Plan N. I believe the copay for an office visit is $20?

Hi there - You can purchase a cancer plan whether you enroll in a Medigap or Medicare Advantage plan! You can purchase a policy that gives you a lump sum and therefore, you can use that for your Part D cancer drugs if you are enrolled in a Medigap plan or you can use it for any cancer-related out-of-pocket costs with the Advantage plan. In 2022, the Medicare Advantage maximum out-of-pocket (MOOP) is $7,550. However, a carrier can lower the MOOP, but cannot make it higher than $7,550.

If you dropped a Medigap plan to enroll in Medicare Advantage, but decide within 12 months to switch back (known as “trial right”), you have Medicare Supplement guaranteed issue rights for the same four-month period described above.

Insurance is really quite simple. It's only complicated by agents and companies. I elected to have a PPO UHC Advantage Plan almost a decade ago. It has literally cost me nothing. I have been fortunate that I have to date had no real health issues. Therefore, I have saved many thousands of dollars in premiums. I consider this being ahead when I do have a problem one day. No choice is ever perfect. It all centers around your level of acceptable risk. You look at your choices. Balance the pros and cons and then pick the one that gives you peace of mind. Supplements work for some while Advantage Plans for others. Supplements cost you up front for coverage you may or may not ever use. While a PPO Advantage Plan generally cost zero and you only pay small deductibles when you do require care. Quite simple.

Hi Catherine - If your employer does not require you to stay on their insurance plan, then yes, you can drop your employer insurance and enroll in Medicare and a Medigap plan! You can apply for Medicare during your 7-month Initial Enrollment Period through the Social Security office. Your IEP begins 3 months before your 65th birthday month and ends 3 months after your birthday month.

@BoomerBenefits 2 года назад

Hi Jo Ann - Not all states require insurance companies to sell Medigap plans to those who are under age 65. If you were to apply for a Medigap plan while under 65, you will find that the premiums are way more expensive compared to a 65-year-old rate. Due to this, many seniors enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan until they reach age 65. Once you do turn 65, you will be given a second 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment window, where you can apply for a Medigap plan without underwriting and you can receive a 65-year-old rate.

Very informative but it only covers advantage plans through insurance companies. Kaiser Permanente Advantage is a stand alone plan that has their own doctors, hospitals, labs, imaging, etc. In this plan there is no insurance company or concern about a provider leaving the network. Copays are paid at point of service so no surprise bills later. Kaiser Advantage is unique and easier because all your health information is shared in one database and there is no insurance company to deal with. Another thing to keep in mind is what she said about providers dropping out of insurance plans. There is no law requiring insurance companies to keep their provider directories updated. My wife who is not on Medicare went to a doctor listed in the insurance provider network and discovered that he dropped out. This was several months back and even though we reported it to the insurance company he is still on their directory today. We complained to everybody including the Better Business Bureau, California Dept of Insurance and California Department of Managed Health Care and to put it simply they said too bad we can do nothing. That's why I despise insurance companies. Keeping them out of the loop makes my life so much easier. You just can't trust them.

@lic9863 2 года назад

You will be automatically eligible for part A, which has no premium. Part B has a monthly premium of $148.50/mos. You can turn down Part B if you are still covered by your employer. However, it depends on the size of the company you work for. I recommend that you speak to your Human Resources. Whether you want to continue with your employer coverage also depends on what your portion of the current premium is, what are your deductibles, what kind of prescription coverage you have, etc. Your HR (or whoever administers your plan) should be able to help you make the right choice. I personally turned down my employer insurance and went with Original Medicare + a prescription plan. It made sense for me.

@BoomerBenefits 2 года назад

If you continue to have insurance past 65 from an employer that has 20 or more employees and you or your spouse actively works for that employer, then you can delay all of Medicare until you retire without having to pay the penalty. However, Part A is $0/month for most people, so you can go ahead and enroll in Part A to have extra hospital stay coverage (unless you plan to contribute to an H.S.A. account).
