Medicare Advantage Benefits
Most Medicare Advantage plans have no monthly premiums. They also often include coverage for dental, vision, hearing aids, and prescriptions for no extra charge. Advantage plans can be a great way to reduce the monthly cost of Medicare. Although, you often have higher amounts to pay when you use the plan and receive medical services. While the copays for basic services like doctor visits and lab services are usually low and inexpensive, comprehensive services like going to the hospital or surgery might have a significantly higher cost.
