You can enroll in Original Medicare or a Medicare Advantage Plan.
Original Medicare

- Drug Coverage - If you're interested in drug coverage, you can join a separate Medicare drug plan (Part D).
- Out-of-Pocket Costs - You have the option to purchase supplemental insurance to help cover out-of-pocket costs.
- Doctor Network - You can use any doctor or hospital that takes Medicare, anywhere in the U.S.
Medicare Advantage
- Medicare Advantage - This plan offers an all-in-one solution that includes Part A, Part B, and usually Part D.
- Out-of-Pocket Costs - You may have lower out-of-pocket costs with Medicare Advantage plans.
- Doctor Network - In many cases, you'll need to use doctors who are in the plan's network.
- Benefits - You can get extra benefits that aren't covered by Original Medicare like vision, hearing, dental, and more.
