  • Anthem offers Medicare Advantage plans providing Original Medicare Part A and Part B coverage, plus other benefits like dental, vision, hearing and prescription drugs (in some cases). They also set a limit on how much you pay out of pocket for medical expenses that are covered by these benefits.

Anthem Medicare Advantage plans offer a variety of options for seniors looking for alternatives to Original Medicare, providing benefits like prescription drug coverage, dental, vision, and hearing services, and often lower out-of-pocket costs. These plans, which are part of the Medicare Advantage (Part C) program, are offered by Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, a major health insurer in the U.S. They come in different forms such as Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), Preferred Provider Organization (PPO), and Special Needs Plans (SNPs), tailored to meet various health needs and preferences. Anthem's plans are available in several states, and they include additional benefits like fitness programs, telehealth services, and sometimes even allowances for over-the-counter medications. However, these plans require enrollees to use network providers, except in emergencies, and might have different premiums, copayments, and coinsurance compared to Original Medicare. Enrollment in these plans typically occurs during the Annual Election Period, with specific eligibility criteria that must be met.
