Medicare health plan is an insurance plan which is offered by a private company. In the past, the subscribers to this kind of health insurance plan were eligible to receive the benefits of Plan A through N with different types of health coverage. However, at present, only Part A, Part B, and Part C are available to beneficiaries.
Most people tend to confuse Medicare with Medigap Insurance. However, it is important for both potential and existing beneficiaries of the plan that they are different from one another.
What are the components of NH Medicare plans?
Although there are three components of Medicare Insurance NH, most experts believe that Part A and Part B are the main components of the plan. While the former is known as hospital insurance and the latter is known as medical insurance.
Private companies take care of the part C component of the plan. It is useful for those patients who look for the insurance coverage of non-prescription drugs. That is to say, the part C component of the plan covers the cost of non-prescription drugs and other aspects such as routine vision or dental check-up.
Eligibility criteria for Medicare Part A
Medicare Part A offers cover to a beneficiary for aspects such as inpatient hospital care, limited home health services, skilled nursing facility care, and hospice care.
In the United States, people qualify for Medicare Part A automatically as they attain the age of 65 years. This is for those who collect retirement benefits from the SSA (Social Security Administration) or the RRB (Railroad Retirement Board). Though the age-limit of 65 years is mentioned by the government, one can qualify for this insurance scheme at an earlier age in case they have a serious disability such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or end-stage renal disease.
A basic requirement for receiving the benefits of this insurance plan is that one should be either be a citizen of the United States or must be a legal resident of the country for at least five years.
Eligibility criteria for Medicare Part B
If you have a health condition, Medicare Part B comes in handy in the coverage of medical supplies and services that are necessary for the treatment of your health condition. Besides, the component of the Medicare insurance plan also offers coverage for rehabilitative and health care services if they are specified by a certified physician or doctor for the treatment of a condition.
If one has already qualified for Medicare Part A, one can qualify for Medicare Part B easily by enrolling their name and paying a monthly premium thereafter. In case one has not qualified for Medicare Part A, there is still a possibility to be eligible for Part B if they meet certain specified criteria. For this, you have to read the detailed information on the internet.
These include an age of 65 years. Plus, one must be a US citizen or a legal resident in the United States for a minimum of 5 years without any gap.
Medicare Advantage Plans Maine also has another component called Plan C. It works in conjunction with Part A and Part B and offers everything which the two components of Original Medicare provide. The only difference is that it offers them with varied costs and provides coverage to non-prescription drugs as well as certain other medical expenses that are not covered by Medicare Part A and Part B.
