What Is The First Big Decision To Make?

Original Medicare (Parts A & B) and Medicare Advantage (Part C) are two different ways to get Medicare benefits. Both options provide the same basic level of hospital and medical insurance but there are also important differences between them. 

Keep Original/Traditional Medicare or choose a Medicare Advantage Plan?
