I’ve been on Medicare Advantage for over ten years (Careplus each year) and do you know how much I’ve saved over regular Medicare? Over that ten years I’ve paid a total of less than $3,000 out of pocket for my health care. I’ve had one major surgery, a sleep study with a CPAP machine prescription, the usual prescriptions for fairly routine issues, and great doctors, nurses and support. I really love my Medicare Advantage. Maybe I’ve been lucky, but I don’t see where traditional Medicare with a supplement plan could have been any better for me.
