What Is The Difference Between Medicare Advantage And Medigap? 
Quite a bit . Medicare Advantage is Medicare benefits managed by a private insurance carrier . Advantage plans are required to cover anything original Medicare would cover but you will be expected to pay more out of pocket when you receive treatment . Unlike Advantage plans , when you have original Medicare and a Medigap plan there are no networks , no claim forms and your out of pocket for benefits under Medicare Part A and Part B will typically be no more than a few hundred dollars a year .
