Medicare Plans

Understanding Your Medicare Options

Medicare can feel complicated — but it doesn't have to be. We'll walk you through every option and help you find the plan that fits your health needs and budget.

What Is Medicare?

Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people 65 or older, as well as certain younger people with disabilities. It's divided into parts, each covering different types of healthcare services.

Navigating Medicare alone can be overwhelming — there are dozens of plan options, coverage rules, and enrollment windows to understand. That's where Korthase Insurance comes in. We compare plans from 20+ carriers at no cost to you, so you can make a confident, informed decision.

Part C

Medicare Advantage

All-in-one coverage with extra benefits

Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare. They bundle your Original Medicare (Parts A & B) coverage into a single plan — and most include prescription drug coverage (Part D) as well.

Combines hospital, medical, and often drug coverage in one plan
Often includes dental, vision, and hearing benefits
May have lower monthly premiums than Supplement plans
Plans vary by county — we'll find what's available in your area
Best for:Seniors looking for comprehensive, bundled coverage with extra benefits at a lower monthly cost.
Medigap

Medicare Supplement

Predictable costs, maximum flexibility

Medicare Supplement plans (also called Medigap) work alongside Original Medicare to help cover the out-of-pocket costs Medicare doesn't pay — like copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. You keep your Original Medicare and add a Supplement plan on top.

Covers gaps in Original Medicare coverage
Accepted by any doctor or hospital that takes Medicare
Predictable monthly costs — no surprise bills
Standardized plans (A, B, C, D, F, G, K, L, M, N) across all carriers
Best for:Seniors who want the freedom to see any Medicare-accepting provider and prefer predictable out-of-pocket costs.
Part D

Medicare Part D

Prescription drug coverage that saves you money

Medicare Part D plans provide coverage for prescription medications. These plans are offered by private insurers and vary in which drugs they cover (their formulary) and how much you pay. Choosing the wrong plan can mean paying far more than necessary for your medications.

Covers brand-name and generic prescription drugs
Plans vary in cost and which drugs are covered
We compare plans based on your specific medications
Avoid the late enrollment penalty by enrolling on time
Best for:Anyone on Original Medicare or a Medicare Supplement plan who needs prescription drug coverage.
