The Building Blocks

What Each Part Covers

Parts A & B make up Original Medicare from the government. Parts C & D are private-plan options that build on it.

A

Hospital Insurance

Original Medicare

Covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care. Most people get Part A premium-free — if you or your spouse paid Medicare taxes long enough while working.

B

Medical Insurance

Original Medicare

Helps cover doctors' services, outpatient care, and other medically necessary services Part A doesn't. Part B is optional, and most people pay a monthly premium for it.

C

Medicare Advantage

Private Plan Option

Another way to get your Part A and Part B, offered by Medicare-approved private companies. You still have Medicare, but get most of your coverage through the Advantage plan - often with extra benefits like dental and vision.

D

Prescription Drugs

Private Plan Option

Voluntary prescription drug coverage through private, federally-approved plans. Get it as a standalone drug plan (PDP) alongside Original Medicare, or built into a Medicare Advantage plan (MA-PD).
