Medicare Advantage vs. Medigap What to Know?

• Many private insurers sell Medicare Advantage
  and Medigap policies, but a few significant
  distinctions still exist. Medigap is a supplement
  that fills the gaps by covering out-of-pocket
  expenditures associated with Original Medicare.
  In contrast, Medicare Advantage plans replace
  Original Medicare and typically give more
  coverage. You can purchase either one or the
  other, but you cannot have Medigap coverage and a
  Medicare Advantage plan. Lets learn more
