Medicare Supplement Planning in Westchester
Westchester is an established unincorporated community in west Miami-Dade along Bird Road and Coral Way, near Florida International University's main campus. Most of its homes went up in the 1950s and '60s, and today about 23% of residents are 65 or older, many in a large Cuban-American community.
Many longtime homeowners here are deciding whether a Medigap plan or a Medicare Advantage plan fits them better. I write Medigap plans, so I'll explain honestly how they differ: Medigap costs more each month but lets you see any doctor who accepts Medicare, with little or nothing out of pocket for covered care.

Why Westchester Residents Choose Medigap Coverage
HCA Florida Kendall Hospital on Bird Road and Keralty Hospital on SW 75th Avenue are each about 2 miles away, and Baptist Hospital of Miami is about 4 miles south. West Gables Rehabilitation Hospital, for recovery after a hospital stay, is also about 2 miles away. A Medigap plan works at all of them.
After the $283 Part B deductible, Plan G pays the rest of the Medicare-approved bill, including the $1,736 hospital deductible. Plan N costs less each month and adds small copays for some office and emergency room visits.

Common Medicare Questions from Westchester Residents
“What's the difference between Medigap and Medicare Advantage?”
Medigap works alongside Original Medicare and pays most of what Medicare doesn't, at any doctor or hospital nationwide that accepts Medicare. Medicare Advantage replaces Original Medicare with a private plan that usually has lower premiums but uses networks, prior authorization and copays. Switching from Advantage back to Medigap later can require health questions.
“Can I use HCA Florida Kendall Hospital with a Medigap plan?”
Yes. It accepts Medicare, so your Medigap plan pays its share. The same goes for Keralty Hospital, Baptist Hospital and any other Medicare hospital.
