Somewhere, @JohnT has an excellent summation of Medicare (and Gap/Advantage plans). I found it as useful as any of the books I read.

Not sure how to link to the thread, maybe this will work: [JohnT’s thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/americas-elder-crisis-medicare-edition/937146)

Apologies in advance if someone else has already linked this. I didn’t see it when scrolling.
