You’re describing a Medicare Supplement or “Medigap” plan (Part G and up). A Medicare Advantage plan (Part C) replaces traditional Medicare (Parts A & B, and maybe D). It’s easy to confuse them, but the differences are critical. It’s mentioned more than once in @JohnT’s excellent thread, but I’ll say it here: [SHIP](https://www.shiphelp.org/) can be an Ogsend in situations like yours. ---

Me too. I had to do an advantage plan. I wish that I had not. If you can possibly afford a supplement plan do the supplement. Advantage really is not any advantage to the patient. ---

> [@Sylvanz](#): > > Advantage really is not any advantage to the patient. Yes, Medicare Advantage was authorized by Congress as a way of convincing Republicans to permit Medicare to continue—it’s basically a chance for private corporations to get their hands on that sweet government money. And the middleman must be paid—meaning that denials of coverage under MA plans exceed denials under original Medicare. An MA plan can work out well for someone with no need of treatment (no illnesses, no accidents) because they can offer “goodies” to entice enrollment. But on the whole, in general, you’re better off with Original plus a Supplement plan (if that’s affordable), than with any Medicare Advantage plan. > **[Medicare Advantage Insurers Made Nearly 50 Million Prior Authorization...](https://www.kff.org/medicare/nearly-50-million-prior-authorization-requests-were-sent-to-medicare-advantage-insurers-in-2023/)** > > Nearly 50 million prior authorization requests were submitted to Medicare Advantage insurers on behalf of Medicare Advantage enrollees in 2023, of which 3.2 million (6.4%) were denied.

At least what’s in that article. It’s mind-boggling. I’d also heard on the radio this morning, on my way to work, how he was claiming all of these years-long wars he ended, that “nobody said could be done”. Everything was just pulled out of his ass.

Trump has created a presidential walk of fame somewhere in the West Wing. The wall contains B&W portraits of all the presidents in gold (no surprise there) frames. All of the presidents, except one. Instead of Biden’s portrait, there’s an image of an autopen. His pettiness knows no bounds. > **[Trump White House hangs image of Biden autopen signature in new ‘Presidential...](https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/24/politics/biden-autopen-portrait-white-house-trump)** > > President Donald Trump has introduced a “Presidential Walk of Fame” along a noticeable walkway outside the West Wing of the White House. ---

That’s because, deep, deep down, Trump knows that if he’s ever facing a major crisis and things are going terribly for the US of A, he’ll be on the phone to President Obama begging (with tears in his eyes) “Sir, sir, please tell me what do do? Help me please, sir.” ---
