Expected Out-Of-Pocket Costs: Comparing Medicare Advantage With Fee-For-Service Medicare

Health Aff (Millwood). 2024 Nov;43(11):1502-1507. doi: 10.1377/hlthaff.2024.00295.

ABSTRACT

We compared the generosity of Medicare plans in terms of out-of-pocket costs attributable to cost sharing and premiums, including both basic and supplemental services. From 2014 through 2019, projected out-of-pocket costs for a typical enrollee were 18-24 percent lower in Medicare Advantage than traditional fee-for-service Medicare.
