Medigap vs. Advantage Quiz

Five multiple-choice questions, about two minutes, comparing the two main paths: a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) alongside Original Medicare, or a Medicare Advantage plan. It asks how important it is to keep your current doctors and hospitals, how much you travel or live in more than one state, whether you prefer a predictable monthly cost or a smaller premium with copays as you use care, how much care you have used in the past year or two, and which extra benefits appeal to you. A progress bar shows where you are, and you can go back, change an answer, or retake the quiz.

The quiz itself needs no personal information — no name, ZIP code or contact details — and nothing you answer is saved. An optional callback form below the result does ask for your name, phone and ZIP code.

The scoring is simple: three or more answers leaning one way returns that plan type, and anything else returns a mixed result with both worth comparing. The page says outright that this is general guidance based on your stated preferences, not a needs analysis and not a recommendation. It does not check whether your doctors are in a network, price a plan, look at your prescriptions, or enroll you, and what is available varies by ZIP code.

Next: read what each plan type actually does, estimate the monthly cost of either path, or have a licensed agent compare the plans that exist where you live.
