If rondeb has a Medicare HMO plan that falls under PLAN C. PLAN C is an Advantage Plan and is private insurance. He is not covered under regular Medicare. Medicare pays his private insurance company what it cost for regular Medicare coverage.
This is what I have a Plan C Advantage plan under Highmark Blue Cross Blue Sheild PPO.
There is no supplement when on an Advantage Plan C so most of the replies are not pertinent to rondeb's question.
For rondeb to have coverage in areas outside his home area he has to change from a HMO to a PPO Advantage Plan. Read Plan C on the Medicare website.
