(6,604 posts)Plans for Medicare(private insurance plans) are supplements to original Medicare A and B which cover things Medicare doesnt and are a variety of plans that are run by private insurance(was the way Medicare was able to get passed and a giveaway to private insurance companies). Each plan is standardized within each A thru N plan but priced differently by different insurance companies and compete by price, quality of customer service etc. Part D are drug plans that are called Medicare drug plans but actually private insurance run (thanks Bush).
If you have a Plan C you have an Advantage plan thru UHC and if you have been satisfied with your plan, thats great. It probably includes some drugs so you didnt get a Medicare D plan. Glad its working out for your d hope it continues to give you the protection you need.
