Original Medicare^‡ has two parts. 

• Part A covers mainly inpatient care, such as care you would receive at a hospital or a skilled nursing facility.
• Part B covers routine medical care, such as when you visit your doctor.
• They do not cover prescription drugs you may need when you’re not in the hospital.
• They do not provide 100% coverage for your costs, such as deductibles, copays, and coinsurance.

Even if you’re healthy now, Medicare Supplement insurance, Medicare Advantage, and Prescription Drug plans will help you control your out-of-pocket costs. More than 80% of people with Original Medicare^‡ have additional coverage.¹

You may want to consider delaying your enrollment in Medicare until you’re no longer covered by your employer’s healthcare plan.

The decision for when to enroll in Medicare can be complicated. If you’re turning 65 soon, be sure to contact your employer’s benefits administrator before making any changes. You can also discuss your options with an Anthem licensed agent.

Approximately 50% of Medicare beneficiaries are in a Medicare Advantage plan.² That’s over 30 million people. Most Medicare Advantage plans include Prescription Drug (Part D), dental, vision, hearing, and more – all in one plan.

Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans are offered by private insurance companies like Anthem. They replace your Original Medicare^‡ Parts A and B but are required by law to provide all Part A and Part B benefits. Plus, most Medicare Advantage plans also include Prescription Drug (Part D), dental, vision, hearing, and additional benefits. You can change Medicare Advantage plans or switch back to Original Medicare^‡ during certain times of the year.

Many Medicare Advantage plans have low or $0 monthly premiums. Monthly premiums are decided by where you live, copayments, deductibles, and other factors. Medicare Advantage plans are offered by private insurance companies like Anthem. Because they replace Original Medicare,^‡ the federal government also reimburses private insurance companies for a percentage of the cost of care they would normally spend on a person living in your area. You will still need to pay your monthly Part B premium ($185.00 in 2025 for most people).
