Medicare is a health insurance service provided by the federal government for citizens above the age of 65. Traditional Medicare programs focus on both inpatient hospital insurance (also known as Part A) and outpatient medical insurance (Part B). Medicare Advantage (Part C) allows seniors to purchase private insurance, approved by Medicare, which couples Part A, Part B, and often Part D (prescription drug) coverage. Advantage plans cover services provided by Part A and B and many offer additional benefits, but also have varying copays, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medicare Part D is a supplementary prescription drug coverage that varies from plan to plan and also involves Medicare approved private insurance companies.
Aetna Medicare is trusted name in the health insurance industry, and has been for over a century. Aetna offers Medicare Advantage, Medicare Rx and Medicare Supplement plans.
Humana Medicare began marketing health insurance products in 1984. Humana offers Medicare beneficiaries four types of HumanaChoice PPO plans.
Mutual of Omaha was established in 1909 and has earned high ratings in A.M. Best, Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s through its time.
The difference between HMO and PPO plans in Medicare is that PPO, or Preferred Provider Organization plans offer beneficiaries the choice of their primary care physician and the choice of what health care provider they would like to go to at a higher copay rate. While Health Maintenance Organization or HMO plans tend to be more affordable, people sometimes prefer to have a choice.
While selecting the Medicare plan that is right for you, you should consider the out-of-pocket costs, hospital expenses, flexibility in choosing network physicians, and home health service benefits contained by the plan to ensure coverage that suits your individual needs.
