Plan Costs:

The cost of a Medicare Advantage Plan is made up of four main parts.

  • Second, the deductible — the amount you pay out of pocket for covered services before the plan starts paying.
  • Third, the copayments and coinsurance — the amounts you pay out of pocket for covered services, usually after meeting the deductible (if applicable). Copays are fixed dollar amounts; coinsurance is a percentage of the cost.
  • Fourth, the Out-of-Pocket Maximum — the maximum amount you could have to pay out of pocket in a year. This may be different for in-network and out-of-network services.
