These plans often include additional benefits not covered by Original Medicare, such as
dental, vision, hearing aids, and wellness programs.
Some plans may even offer transportation to doctor visits, over-the-counter benefits, and meal benefits. These extra benefits can be particularly attractive to beneficiaries looking for comprehensive coverage beyond just medical and hospital insurance.
However, it’s crucial to understand that medicare plans can change their benefits, provider networks, and drug formularies annually.
This means you’ll need to review your plan each year during the Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 – December 7) to ensure it still meets your needs.
