5 You need to have Part A and Part B to qualify for Part C. In most states if you sign up for Part C the month you turn 65 or within a six-month window after your 65th birthday you will qualify without having to answer medical questions. If you do not sign up during the enrollment period, you will have to answer a medical questionnaire and can be turned down for health reasons. Medigap What is Medigap? Medigap is a health insurance option that can be purchased from a private insurance company to fill in the gaps in Medicare Part A and Part B. There are 10 standardized Medigap plans. Each offers different benefits Medigap and Part C premiums vary widely and benefits are the same. Part D What is Medicare Part D?

After that, Medicare Part D pays 95% of total medication costs. Your Medicare Rights Medicare participants have a right to appeal or question decisions made about health care payment or decisions. An appeal may be made if: A service or item you got isn t covered, and you think it should be. A service or item is denied, and you think it should be paid. You question the amount Medicare paid Choosing Medicare Benefits Participants in Medicare may choose different ways to get services. When you are first eligible for Medicare, you will make your choice. Each year you can review your health and prescription needs and change to a different plan during the enrollment period. Careful consideration of these options is important. Be sure to consider: 29
6 Cost What do you have to pay out-of-pocket, including premiums (amount you must pay for insurance)? Benefits Are extra benefits and services, like eye exams or hearing aids covered? Doctor and Hospital choice Can you see the doctor you want? Can you go to the hospital you want? Convenience Where are the doctors offices? Prescription drugs What will your prescription drugs cost under that plan? Pharmacy choice What pharmacies can you use? Quality of care Will you have the best possible health care available? MEDICAID Medicaid is a federally-funded, state-run program that provides medical assistance for individuals and families with limited incomes and resources. Medicaid benefits vary from state to state. Medicaid does not pay money, instead it sends payments directly to health care providers. In some states a small part of the cost called a co-payment must also be paid by the insured. In Texas, health care costs, including doctor s visits and eye care are covered for the following categories of people: persons who have children and a limited income persons who receive or are eligible for Supplemental Security Income ( SSI ) a pregnant woman who meets income requirements a family whose assets are less than $2,000 a person who receives adoption assistance or foster care assistance Medicaid Services include: Inpatient hospital services Outpatient hospital services Prenatal care (care for pregnant women) Vaccines for children Physician services Nursing facility services for persons aged 21 or older Family planning services and supplies Rural health clinic services Home health care for persons eligible for skilled-nursing service Laboratory and x-ray services Pediatric and family nurse practitioner services Nurse-midwife services Early periodic screening, diagnostic, and treatment services for children under age 21 30
