At Veterans Healthcare, we only offer Medicare plans that come at no additional cost to you. In fact, you’ll actually receive money back each month via the included Part B Premium reduction!

We all know nothing is “free” — someone is footing the bill for your Medicare plan, but it’s the Federal Government, not you.

Part C: Medicare Advantage was created by the Federal Government in 1997 — private insurance companies are contracted, paid, and regulated to do the service work for Medicare, including additional benefits as part of the bundled package. The Government pays for the program, you pay some of your Part B Premium, and TRICARE For Life continues to act as secondary payor, picking up whatever Medicare doesn’t pay.

Because of your discounted Medicare Part B premium, your Social Security check will grow. The contracted insurance company communicates directly with Social Security behind the scenes, ensuring you get your increase.

This isn’t “free money” — the Government taking a lower Medicare premium out of your Social Security means more money left over for you.

We only offer Medicare plans designed to work with TRICARE For Life. None of these plans will alter your reception of prescription drugs. It will be exactly the same as it’s always been.
