Get more benefits than Government-Provided Medicare

Original Medicare includes two parts:

Part A (Hospital Insurance) covers hospitalization, skilled nursing facilities and home health care.

Part B (Medical Insurance) covers outpatient care, certain doctors' services, medical supplies and preventive care.

With Original Medicare, you must meet your deductible before Medicare pays its share for services. Once the deductible is met, you are still responsible for your cost-share, and there is no cap on your yearly costs. These could add up to high unexpected expenses.

No. Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage) is an optional part of Medicare. You must have Medicare Parts A and B to enroll in a separate prescription drug plan or a Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plan. Many GlobalHealth plans include prescription drug coverage.

Supplement Plans, or Medigap, cover some of the out-of-pockets costs not covered by Original Medicare. These plans typically have a high monthly premium, and beneficiaries who choose a Medicare Supplement plan may also have to pay for a separate Part D prescription drug plan.

Medicare Part C, also known as Medicare Advantage, is an all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare to enhance your health coverage. Medicare Part C, such as a plan from GlobalHealth, combines Part A, Part B and often Part D prescription drugs. Medicare Part C usually offers additional benefits you may not receive with Original Medicare, including dental, vision, hearing and low to no copays on physician visits. You must have Medicare Parts A and B to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, and you must continue to pay your Part B premium.

C-SNPs are types of Medicare Advantage plans designed for Medicare beneficiaries with chronic conditions such as heart disease. Plans may offer C-SNP plans for only one condition or a group of conditions.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid defines which condition or group of conditions a Medicare Advantage plan may cover through a C-SNP plan.

For 2022, GlobalHealth is offering new C-SNP plans in select counties. These C-SNP plans are available to Medicare eligibles with:

• Chronic heart failure
• Diabetes
• Cardiovascular disease including cardiac arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, and chronic venous thromboembolic disorder.
