What is Medicare Insurance?

Medicare is a federal health insurance program for individuals age 65 and older, as well as certain younger individuals with disabilities. It’s divided into different parts to cover specific healthcare services:

  • Medicare Part A: Hospital insurance for inpatient care, skilled nursing, and hospice services.
  • Medicare Part B: Medical insurance for doctor visits, outpatient care, and preventive services.
  • Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage): Private plans that combine Part A, Part B, and often Part D coverage.
  • Medicare Part D: Prescription drug coverage to help reduce medication costs.
