Q: Why am I getting Medicare junk mail?
A - Insurance companies – regulated by the government – sell Medicare Supplements or Medigap’s, and they might send you mail about them.
Medicare Advantage plans are the alternative to Original Medicare,
these plans follow Original Medicare coverage but can “add” benefits like vision, dental hearing, annual physical etc. This is run by private insurance companies – not the government – and can send mail to entice you to buy their policy.
