Part C is not an upgrade, it’s soup to nuts. The gov’t just writes the check to the insurer.

A type of Medicare health plan offered by a private company that contracts with Medicare to provide you with all your Part A and Part B benefits.



We’re splitting hairs. It’s an upgrade in the sense it replaces primary Medicare coverage while also including supplements (vision, dental, and other such coverage).


You're original comment says you prefer government run insurance and give Medicare as an example, but neglect to note that 36% of Medicare is privately run.


Fair point.
