How to choose between Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans
When you sign up for Medicare you have to choose either a Medicare Advantage plan or consider acquiring a Medicare Supplement plan that complements original Medicare. So, what is the difference? Medicare Advantage plans replace Original Medicare, but you don’t lose any benefits; actually, most Medicare Advantage plans include extra benefits for routine vision and dental care and nearly all include Part D prescription drug coverage.
