Medicare Advantage Plans (MVP) are not the same as traditional Medicare, but they are still considered Medicare. MVP is a type of health insurance plan offered by private companies that contract with Medicare to provide beneficiaries with their Medicare Part A and Part B benefits. These plans often include additional coverage, such as prescription drug coverage, vision, dental, and hearing services.
MVP plans are popular because they offer extra benefits that are not typically covered by original Medicare, and they may also have lower out-of-pocket costs for the beneficiary. However, it is important to note that MVP plans have their own rules and regulations, and not all providers may be in-network.
Overall, MVP plans are a good option for those who are looking for more comprehensive coverage than traditional Medicare alone, but it is important to carefully review the details of the plan before enrolling to ensure that it meets your specific healthcare needs. It is also important to compare different plan options to find the one that best fits your budget and healthcare needs.
