How does the original Medicare coverage compare with Medicare Advantage plans in Oklahoma?

The Original Medicare Plan

Original Medicare is managed by the federal government. Medicare is an American invention, created in 1965. You're able to go to most doctors enrolled in Medicare as long as they are accepting new patients.

This health insurance plan includes, part A, which is Oklahoma hospital insurance and the coverage generally includes care at skilled nursing facilities and sometimes nursing homes

The original also includes Part B, which is Oklahoma medical insurance and the coverage generally includes preventive care, doctor visits, lab tests, durable medical equipment, and more.

Part A and Part B come with deductible amounts, coinsurance, and/or copayments for most services.

Medicare beneficiaries: if you’re automatically enrolled in Medicare, as many people are, you’re usually enrolled in Part A and Part B. If you’re already getting Social Security benefits when you turn 65 or qualify by disability, you’re usually enrolled automatically.
