FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is the difference between Medicare  Advantage, Part D and Original Medicare?  

Original Medicare Part A is hospital coverage that helps cover the costs for inpatient hospital care and skilled nursing facilities (not custodial or long term care), as well as hospice and home health care. Original Medicare Part B covers the costs of doctors’ services, other outpatient care, as well as tests and laboratory services. Medicare Advantage plans offer all the services covered by original Medicare, in addition to some supplemental benefits not covered by Medicare.  Medicare drug coverage (Part D) is offered as a separate purchased plan for individuals with Original Medicare. Part D coverage also may be offered with a Medicare Advantage plan for comprehensive coverage. FirstMedicare Direct plans include Parts A and B coverage, plus Part D prescription drug benefits.  

Are there any restrictions on what providers I may use?  

Many Medicare Advantage plans require you to use network providers in order to be covered, including FirstMedicare Direct HMO plans. However, if you have an emergency you will be covered whether the emergency facility is in or out-of-network. PPO plans allow you the choice of going to a network or out-of-network provider; if you go to an out-of-network provider you may have a higher share of costs.  

I already pay for Medicare – why do I have to pay for a Medicare  Advantage plan?

Under original Medicare alone, services are not 100% covered and may require significant out-of-pocket costs. Many people enjoy the security of having a plan that limits their total annual out-of-pocket costs in case they should have a significant medical event. Our members also like the fact that FirstMedicare Direct includes a prescription drug benefit.  

How do I find out more about FirstMedicare Direct?

Pre-Enrollment Checklist

Before making an enrollment decision, it is important that you fully understand our benefits and rules. If you have any questions, you can call and speak to a customer service representative at 877-279-1732

Understanding the Benefits

Review the full list of benefits found in the Evidence of Coverage (EOC), especiallyfor those services that you routinely see a doctor. Visit www.FirstMedicare.com orcall 877-279-1732 to view a copy of the EOC.

Review the provider directory (or ask your doctor) to make sure the doctors you seenow are in the network. If they are not listed, it means you will likely have to selecta new doctor.

Review the pharmacy directory to make sure the pharmacy you use for anyprescription medicines is in the network. If the pharmacy is not listed, you will likelyhave to select a new pharmacy for your prescriptions.

Understanding Important Rules

In addition to your monthly plan premium, you must continue to pay your MedicarePart B premium. This premium is normally taken out of your Social Security checkeach month.

Benefits, premiums and/or copayments/co-insurance may change on January 1,2019.

HMO Applicants: Except in emergency or urgent situations, we do not cover servicesby out-of-network providers (doctors who are not listed in the provider directory).

PPO Applicants: Our plan allows you to see providers outside of our network (non-contracted providers). However, while we will pay for covered services providedby a non-contracted provider, the provider must agree to treat you. Except in anemergency or urgent situations, non-contracted providers may deny care. Inaddition, you will pay a higher co-pay for services received by non-contractedproviders.

I have read the above checklist and wish to proceed
