Medicare Savings Account (MSA) Plans
Medicare MSA Plans combine a high-deductible insurance plan with a medical savings account that you can use to pay for your health care costs. These plans consist of:
- High-deductible health plan: The first part is a special type of high-deductible Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C: The plan will only begin to cover your costs once you meet a high yearly deductible, which varies by plan.)
- Medical Savings Account (MSA): The second part is a special type of savings account. The Medicare MSA Plan deposits money into your account. You can use money from this savings account to pay your health care costs before you meet the deductible.
