Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people 65 and older, and for some people with disabilities. It is split into parts that cover hospital stays, doctor visits, prescription drugs, and more.
To avoid misleading Medicare sales tactics, know your rights: agents cannot pressure you, contact you uninvited, or misrepresent plan benefits. Ask questions, take your time, and verify anything you're told with Medicare directly or a free SHIP counselor.
Every fall during Medicare's Annual Enrollment Period, review your plan's changes to premiums, drug coverage, provider network, and out-of-pocket costs to make sure your plan still fits your needs.

Neither option is right for everyone. Original Medicare with a supplement gives you predictable costs and broad access to providers, while Medicare Advantage often has lower upfront premiums but more restrictions. The right choice depends on your health, finances, and how you use care.
Utah has 14 Medicare Advantage plans for 2026.Availability varies by county.
