How does Original Medicare work and why is it important to have a Medicare supplement?
As most seniors know, Original Medicare is the federal government healthcare plan which serves seniors age 65 and over. But Medicare only covers 80% of eligible medical expenses. That leaves a costly gap in your coverage. A supplement like FirstCommunity Senior Select, fills the gap, covering the other 20% of eligible medical services. Supplements are the best way to prevent spending thousands of dollars out of pocket on eligible expenses that Medicare doesn’t cover.
