Well, it always did seem strange to get something for nothing. I heard many years ago, before the Affordable Care Act, that advantage plans were not going to last because of the expense. I have always wondered who is footing the bill for the free advantage plans.
We have a supplemental that is more expensive than $0, but it is accepted everywhere in the country (and my husband's is accepted overseas), and there are no copays. We travel a lot, and it's peace of mind that I don't object to paying for, especially since Medicare has made such a difference in our lives in terms of the overall cost of our health care.
