They're the same thing — "Part C" is the formal name, "Medicare Advantage" is the marketing name. - Can I have a Medigap policy with Part C? No. Medigap works only with Original Medicare, not Medicare Advantage. - Will I still pay my Part B premium on a Part C plan? Yes, even with a $0-premium Part C plan, you still pay the Part B premium. ### ACA Health Insurance - When is Open Enrollment for ACA plans? Typically November 1 through January 15 each year, though Special Enrollment Periods exist for qualifying life events. - Do I qualify for subsidies? Subsidies are based on household income and family size. An agent can help determine eligibility. ### Life Insurance - Do I need a medical exam for term life insurance? Many carriers offer no-exam options, though exam policies often have lower premiums. - How much burial insurance do I need? Most families choose between $5,000 and $35,000 depending on final expense preferences. ## Optional - Business entity: Triangle Life and Health® (a brand of Inspiring Success Inc) - Owner: Michael Cubell - Founded: 2012 - Google Reviews: 77 reviews, 5.0 average rating
