Here is a quick overview of Medicare health plans we offer at Advantage Insurance Advisors:
- Original Medicare Part A and Part B — Together, Medicare Part A (hospital insurance) and Part B (medical insurance) comprise Original Medicare. Qualifying for Original Medicare allows you to get coverage for hospitalization and outpatient care costs. However, there are a number of costs that Medicare Part A and B do not cover, such as prescription costs, co-pays, and more. You may qualify for Original Medicare if you are receiving social security benefits or if you are under 65 and have a medical disability.
- Medicare Advantage (Part C) — This health plan offers you an alternate way to receive the benefits of Original Medicare. The only difference is that when you enroll in a Medicare C plan, a private health insurance company pays for your coverage instead of the government. There are several Medicare Advantage plans available to the senior citizens of North Carolina and Michigan that offer additional benefits, such as coverage for routine dental or eye checkups, prescription drug costs, and more.
- Medicare Supplement (Medigap) — If you are unable to afford the out-of-pocket expenses and premiums associated with Original Medicare, you may want to opt for a Medicare Supplement plan, which offers you coverage for some of the costs not covered under Original Medicare, such as copayments, deductibles, and other out of pocket costs.
- Medicare Prescription Drug (Part D) — These plans add prescription drug coverage to your Original Medicare plan, allowing you to avoid the out-of-pocket expenses associated with prescription medicines. Medicare Part D plans are best suited for you if you regularly use different medicines for the management of a chronic medical condition, such as diabetes or hypertension.

A. You may qualify for Medicare two ways:

Q. If you are enrolled or looking to enroll in Medicare part A & B, do you still need prescription drug coverage (Part D) even if you don’t currently take any prescriptions?
A. Yes – by law if you are enrolled in Medicare Part B, you have 63 days to enroll in Part D Prescription Drug Coverage or you may be penalized.
Q. What Medicare option is best for you now and in the future?
A. There are many determining factors but what it really comes down to is your health and budget. There are many plan options for you in both cases that we can assist with.
Q. Can you switch your plan or enroll in Medicare anytime of the year??
A. Typically, changes to Medicare Advantage Plans or Prescription Drug coverage can only be made during the Annual Election Period (Oct 15 – Dec 7).

“Working with Advantage Insurance Advisors I was able to save nearly $100 a month on my health insurance premiums with a better plan than my previous health insurance. James is absolutely phenomenal and does all the work for you so you don’t have to worry about a thing. He took the time to educate me on my healthcare insurance options and helped me choose the best plan within my budget. I cannot recommend him enough!”
– Zach W.
"Shortly after my wife and I were married, we realized that we needed help consolidating our insurance. I met James through a co-worker and scheduled a meeting. He not only helped us consolidate insurances, but he saved us over a thousand dollars on our car and home owners insurance premiums. James was very professional throughout the whole process. He took the time to provide us with education around each type of insurance and stayed in touch to ensure a smooth transition. I would recommend James to my friends and family to help with all of their insurance needs!"
