Q
If I enroll in a Medicare Supplement Plan, will it also cover my spouse? No. You and your spouse must each enroll in separate policies in order to obtain Medicare Supplemental coverage. This applies to Medicare Advantage Plans and Medicare Prescription Drug Plans as well. Are Medicare and Medicaid the same thing? No. Medicare is federal health coverage program designed for the elderly as well as individuals with certain qualifying heath conditions. Medicaid is a state-run health coverage program primarily designed for low-income individuals within the state. If I enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan or a Medicare Supplement Plan, do I still have to pay my Medicare Part B premium? Yes. You will have to pay your monthly Medicare Part B premium to Medicare alongside the monthly premium you pay for your Medicare Advantage Plan or Medicare Supplement Plan. However, if you qualify for extra help, you may get assistance with your Part D premium.
