Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans often have a low or $0 monthly premium. In addition to the monthly plan premium, there are out-of-pocket costs—in the form of deductibles, copays and coinsurance. These costs will depend on the particular plan you choose.
 

  • A deductible is the amount you must pay for your own care before the plan begins to cover costs
  • A copay is a set amount you pay for a medical service or prescription drug
  • Coinsurance is when the cost is split between the plan and the insured person; for example, you pay 20% and the plan pays 80%
