Hi, I'm Julianne Dickey, We Care Medicare, your local Medicare insurance advocate. Medicare is four letters A, B, C, and D. Here's all of it in one minute.

A is your hospital, inpatient stays, skilled nursing, hospice are all included. Most people do not pay a premium for Part A, unless they have not paid into their Social Security, then there is a premium. Part B is your medical, your doctors, nurses, technicians, outpatient care, anyone who administers any sort of care to you will fall under Part B.

And there is a premium and a yearly deductible. C is your Medicare Advantage plans. These are private insurance companies that bundle A and B together and usually include your Part D.

And then the last one, D is your prescription plan. These are also through private insurance companies. There are several plans to choose from, and they are all based on what you're currently taking.

That's the skeleton of it. When you're ready for more details, that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Let's make Medicare make sense together.
