Medicare Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plan – A type of Medicare Advantage Plan available in a local or regional area in which you pay less if you use doctors, hospitals, and providers that belong to the network. You can use doctors, hospitals, and providers outside of the network for an additional cost.
Medicare Private Fee-For-Service (PFFS) Plan- A type of Medicare Advantage Plan in which you may go to any Medicare-approved doctor or hospital that accepts the plan’s payment terms and conditions.
Medicare Special Needs Plan (SNP) – A special type of Medicare Advantage Plan that provides more focused and specialized healthcare for specific groups of people, such as those who have both Medicare and Medicaid, who reside in a nursing home, or have certain chronic medical conditions.
Medicare Medical Savings Account (MSA) Plan – MSA Plans combine a high-deductible Medicare Advantage Plan and a bank account. The plan deposits money from Medicare in the account. You can use it to pay your medical expenses until your deductible is met.
Medicare Cost Plan – In a Medicare Cost Plan, if you get services outside of the plan’s network without a referral, your Medicare-covered services will be paid for under the Original Medicare Plan (your Cost Plan pays for emergency services or urgently needed services).
