Medicare and Its Parts

Captions available

The idea

Medicare is the federal health insurance program with four parts.

In practice

Part A covers hospital and skilled nursing care; Part B covers doctors' services and outpatient care; Part C is Medicare Advantage, offered by private plans; Part D covers prescription drugs.

Where people slip

Ask Medicare patients whether they have original Medicare or a Medicare Advantage plan, because billing differs.
