Is Medigap the same as Medicare Advantage?

No. Medicare Advantage is another way to receive Medicare coverage through a Medicare-approved private plan. Medigap is supplemental insurance designed to work with Original Medicare.

Can I have Medicare Advantage and Medigap at the same time?

No. Medicare.gov states that Medigap cannot be used with Medicare Advantage to pay Medicare Advantage copayments, deductibles or premiums.

Does Medigap include prescription drug coverage?

Medigap policies sold after 2005 do not include prescription drug coverage. People using Original Medicare can review a separate Medicare drug plan.

Which option is better?

There is no single answer for everyone. The comparison depends on providers, prescriptions, location, travel, budget, enrollment rights and current coverage.
