When you think of health coverage after retirement, Medicare is probably the first thing that comes to mind. But some people may also have access to retiree health coverage. Here are some of the differences:

Original Medicare

If you’re considering Original Medicare for your coverage, it’s important to know that Medicare alone may not provide all the coverage that fits your needs. While this option provides you with flexibility in your choice of doctors, specialists, and hospitals, you are financially responsible for some benefits and services. For example:

• Not all benefits are covered, including ones such as eyeglasses, gym membership and most prescription drugs.
• You pay a deductible for some services.
• Expect to pay as much as 20% in out-of-pocket coinsurance for most medical costs.

Group Retiree Medicare Advantage

Group Medicare Advantage plans often provide benefits like vision, dental and hearing coverage not included with Original Medicare (Medicare Part A and B). Retirees may enjoy lower out-of-pocket costs and coverage that’s comparable or better than the coverage they had while working. These plans typically help retirees retain the same or a similar level of coverage they enjoyed before retiring.
