Its nice that you talked about how basic Medicare Advantage plans only offer hospital and medical insurance. My family was talking about health related topics last night and we started considering if we should get a Medicare insurance plan or not. Having one seems to be a good idea so I am not against it, and I'll try to look more into it.
