Another thing to consider is how much you travel. Advantage plans are local only, and if you become ill while out of your plan's area, the medical costs that fall to you to pay will go up.

With a supplemental plan, there are no out-of-plan fees. You can see any doctor in the US who takes Medicare.
I definitely have some homework to do. Thanks for the info.
