Doesn't the monthly cost for a Medicare Advantage plan depend on a few things. Like where you live, who the carrier is, what the plan is? We opted for Supplemental Plans rather than Medicare Advantage. We felt it would give us more flexibility.
It can greatly depend on where you live. In some states, people complain they are limited to what doctors they can use. Here in Oklahoma, my wife had a plan which allowed her to use any doctor via an advantage plan (PFFS). In Ohio where my sister lives, most Advantage plans cost $0 extra. Here, none did (at the time), they all cost extra.
