Sample questions & answers

1. Medicare Part A primarily helps cover:

Inpatient hospital care

Medicare Part A is hospital insurance covering inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care.

2. Medicare Part B primarily helps cover:

Physician services and outpatient care

Medicare Part B is medical insurance covering physician services, outpatient care, and certain preventive services, generally requiring a monthly premium.

3. What is the main function of a Medicare supplement (Medigap) policy?

Paying Original Medicare's deductibles and coinsurance

Medigap policies fill cost-sharing gaps in Original Medicare such as deductibles and coinsurance; North Carolina prohibits Medicare supplement policies from duplicating benefits Medicare already provides.

4. Long-term care insurance is intended to cover:

Custodial and skilled care over a long period

Long-term care insurance covers extended assistance with activities of daily living in settings such as the home, assisted living, or a nursing facility, which Medicare generally does not cover.
