If you are a retired Federal employee, consider keeping your FEHB plan and opting out of Medicare Part B. Since turning 65, I have saved thousands of dollars in Medicare premiums by using my FEHB insurance as my only insurance. The annual catastrophic limit is only $5,000, which I can afford, if needed.

Best Medical Health Coverage @65
As many suggested, SHINE is a great place to start. We faced the same decision a few years ago and decided to go with Florida Blue Supplement F. We're so glad we did....I had two emergency hospital trips and surgery in a State that didn't accept Florida's Medicare Advantage plans and though we have a monthly payment, everything that Medicare didn't cover was covered by Florida Blue; no copay, deductibles, out of pocket on anything. This is a highly personal decision.....I have many friends that have the Advantage plan and love it.

My knowledge is totally up to date, your response is not up to date. Nowhere in my post did I say any new Medicare qualifier should buy plan F. I merely stated my experience with it.

OK, bottom line, ADVANTAGE plans are medical MANAGEMENT plans (NOT insurance), Medicare and a supplemental are INSURANCE plans, make sure you understand the difference between these.
