Medicare Advantage

Definition: 
The program that replaced the M+Choice program under Medicare Part C. Similar to M+Choice, Medicare Advantage offers Medicare beneficiaries the option of enrolling in a health plan to receive their Medicare benefits, although the Medicare Advantage program offers additional health plan options at the regional and local levels. Medicare Advantage plans must cover all Medicare benefits under Parts A and B, and may offer supplemental benefits.
