Garland Medicare Insurance

Medicare is a national health insurance program in the United States, now administered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). It primarily provides health insurance for Americans aged 65 and older, but also for some younger people with disability status as determined by the Social Security Administration, as well as people with end stage renal disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Medicare has four parts:

• Part A (Hospital Insurance) helps pay for inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, home health care, and hospice care.
• Part B (Medical Insurance) helps pay for doctors’ services, outpatient care, and some medical supplies.
• Part C (Medicare Advantage) is a type of Medicare health plan offered by private companies that contracts with Medicare to provide all your Part A and Part B benefits. Medicare Advantage Plans may offer extra coverage, such as vision, hearing, dental, and prescription drug coverage.
• Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage) helps pay for prescription drugs.

Medicare is a valuable resource for older Americans and those with disabilities. It provides access to quality health care and helps to protect people from the high cost of medical bills.

Here are some of the benefits of Medicare:

• It provides health insurance for people who might not otherwise be able to afford it. Medicare is available to all Americans aged 65 and older, regardless of income or health status. This means that even people with pre-existing conditions can get coverage.
• It helps to protect people from the high cost of medical bills. Medicare pays for a wide range of medical services, including hospital stays, doctor visits, and prescription drugs. This can save people a lot of money on their health care costs.
• It provides access to quality health care. Medicare beneficiaries have access to a wide network of doctors and hospitals. They can also choose to receive care through Medicare Advantage plans, which are private health plans that contract with Medicare to provide all Part A and Part B benefits.
• It helps to keep people healthy. Medicare covers a number of preventive services, such as mammograms and colonoscopies. These services can help to detect health problems early, when they are easier to treat.
