    Wow, this is by far the best video about different insurance plans I have ever seen. It clarifies so much why innovations are ripe in the MA plan world. I would double like this if I could. Thank you Dr. Bricker

    This is very valuable information. Many people who first enroll in Medicare and learn their first year what they should have done.

    Thank you for this very broad over view -- it's great -- if you don't mind chipping away at this iceberg with more videos -- I think a deeper understanding of this is vital to physicians as insurance companies are also buying hospitals and doctor groups. Greatly appreciate all your videos and this one in particular!

    Eric Bricker thanks for the video. Great explanation. I can see your passion.
    2 questions:
    Do you have a video explaining the "doughnut hole"? "
    You said that in Traditional M. patients pay 20% of the bill. Is this not the same with Advantage?
    Thanks again

    • @ahealthcarez
      @ahealthcarez  10 месяцев назад +1

      No video on donut hole. Good suggestion.
      Correct. Not the same as Medicare Advantage. Medicare Advantage typically only has copays that are much less than 20%.

    Thanks Dr. Bricker. Do you have an article that you have written (or recommend) on Medicare Supplemental policies? For example, in my experience almost every supplemental plan will cover the 20% (unless the plan has a unique deductible or something that makes a portion of the payment patient responsibility), but Medicaid usually denies coverage of the 20%. Why?

    • @georgie9854

      Medicaid or medicare denies it?

  • @jackdolphy8965
    @jackdolphy8965 3 года назад +1

    Your explanation towards the beginning about the trend being Advantage - you made the percentages between Trad Medicare and Advantage accounting 100%. Methinks you left out Medigap aka Supplemental plans.

    • @ahealthcarez
      @ahealthcarez  3 года назад

      Thank you for your comment. Medigap would go along with Traditional.

    You didn't mention that if you go the advantage plan C route and have low or zero monthly fee you still pay the part B fee every month. You also have to stay in your network so if you travel or visit family out of your area and require hospital care you are screwed, no coverage!

    Think about this… what if commercial, ACA plans, Medicare, self insured, etc… what if all of those stake hinders and investors in all of those plans AND those investing in insurance investments… all made heakthcare interoperability a non-negotiable in their plans?
    The government needs to protect rights of people and groups. Privacy, transparency and proper oversight.
    FYI… this very good explanations… there’s a lot of various subsidies. And, the various levels of government already contributes to health care and Research over and over. The reality that health systems and insurance companies do NOT own patient data… is more and more obvious.
    The government needs to protect rights and this will also enable far better connections with community. It’s very workable.

      Not just maddening, it is actually dangerous. By limiting your ability to free choice, you are then under their complete control. You can then be assigned to the least educated and least experienced health care provider.
