Original Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B Explained

[@baratono]

You didn't mention the monthly part B premium, $174.70 for most folks. Good info, as always.

[@twistedtrails8128]

i think most folks by now know about the part B premium...

[@baratono]

​Not at all. I've been retired for years -- when I'm explaining signing up for Medicare to friends & family, most are shocked to find out that it isn't all "free".

Agreed - why do we need part B? Or do we need part B - I’m a vet and us the VA clinic and hospital.

I intend to take original A & B but what else do I need if I my old employer covers me as a secondary health care provider via our retirement package.

I'm glad I chose original Medicare. But I'm having trouble convincing my loved ones to do the same. I'm worried the they will miss out on their medigap open enrollment period. Please help! I need a video that will help convince those amongst us that just don't seem to get it!

Thank you for explaining Medicare. So you do need to get a supplemental plan?

[@steveduzan3288]

I didn't hear prescriptions mentioned. Is that part of Supplement G/N plan?

[@thomaslandry6296]

Part D is the prescription plan

[@billbeeb1803]

I was wondering, once you've met your deductible and Medicare gets a bill and pays their 80%, does Medicare bill your Medigap policy for the rest or does my Doctors office do it. I just want to be sure because I am going to Quest labs for a PSA test and I sign in on the kiosk. When I put my insurance info in, do I just put in my Medicare info.

[@carapungo]

I am 66, if I go to the hospital for a gallbladder removal, and stay there for 2 days, and the hospital bill is about $60,000, and I also have Insurance for Plan B, how much does plan A cover, and how much do I have to pay with my plan B?

[@MedicareonVideo]

Plan B or Part B? If you have just Medicare Part A and B, without a supplement, you will pay the Part D deductible, as well as the 20% that Medicare Part B does not cover. That is why a Medicare Supplement plan is very important to pick up that deductible and 20% charge.

[@evertmorse8518]

Part A, B, C, D, E, F, G and and and. Why is this so complicated?

[@i-likemy-space7729]

The more complicated it is, the more ways to fleece you.
