There are four parts to Medicare: Medicare Part A, Hospital Insurance; Medicare Part B, Medical Insurance; Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage), which was formerly known as "Medicare + Choice" and the new Medicare Part D, prescription drug coverage. Generally, people who are over age 65 and getting Social Security automatically qualify for Medicare Parts A and B.

Medicare Part C also known as Medicare Advantage (formerly Medicare+Choice) offers a choice of options including Medicare managed care plans (like Medicare HMOs and PPOs) and Medicare private fee-for-service plans. Medicare Part D is the outpatient prescription drug benefit resulting from the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 that went into effect on January 1, 2006. How can I get help with my premiums?
