Volusia County Medicare FAQs

How many people in Volusia County use Original Medicare?

CMS counts 173,548 people with Medicare in Volusia County as of June 2026. Of them, 68,145 (39.3%) use Original Medicare, the coverage a Medicare Supplement plan works with, and 105,403 are in Medicare Advantage or other health plans.

What would a hospital stay at AdventHealth Daytona Beach cost me with Plan G?

For a 4-day stay in 2026, Original Medicare alone leaves you with the $1,736 Part A deductible. Plan G pays it, along with your Part B coinsurance, so your only Medicare cost for the year is the $283 Part B deductible. The amounts are the same at every hospital that accepts Medicare.

Can I use my Medicare Supplement plan at hospitals in other counties?

Yes. Medicare Supplement plans work with any doctor or hospital in the United States that accepts Medicare. There are no networks or referrals, so you can use hospitals in Volusia, Flagler, Brevard or Orange counties or anywhere else.

Should Volusia County residents choose Plan G or Plan N?

Both cover hospital costs in full. Plan N charges up to $20 for some office visits and up to $50 for ER visits that do not lead to an admission, and it does not cover Part B excess charges. If your doctors accept Medicare assignment, excess charges do not apply. Use the calculator on this page with your own quotes to compare.

When should I buy a Medicare Supplement plan?

The best time is usually your six-month Medigap open enrollment period, which starts the month you are 65 or older and enrolled in Part B. During it, carriers cannot deny you or charge more because of your health.

Can I keep my Medicare Supplement plan if I spend part of the year elsewhere?

Yes. A Medigap plan follows you anywhere in the United States, and Plans G and N pay their share for any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare. Premiums are based on where you live, so tell your carrier if your permanent address changes.

How many Medicare-certified hospitals are in Volusia County?
