Description: Traditional Medicare [TM] has many coverage gaps and no out-of-pocket maximum. Most members must purchase a Medicare Supplement Plan and a Part D plan for pharmacy coverage. Over 50% of members have opted for a Medicare Advantage [MA] plan that replaces TM and the need to purchase a Supplement and (in most cases) a Part D plan.
