Medicare Advantage

Medicare Advantage can be useful, but the network matters.

Use this guide to prepare questions about provider access, referrals, prior authorization, prescriptions, extra benefits, travel, and out-of-pocket risk.

May be worth comparing if

  • - You are comfortable checking networks
  • - You want bundled private-plan coverage
  • - You understand prior authorization may apply
  • - Your doctors and prescriptions fit the plan

Ask before enrolling

  • - Are my doctors in network?
  • - Is my hospital in network?
  • - Are referrals required?
  • - What procedures need prior authorization?
  • - What happens when I travel?
