Your Medicare Coverage Options in Henderson
Henderson Medicare beneficiaries have several coverage paths to consider:
Original Medicare (Parts A & B) The federal health insurance program for U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents age 65 or older, as well as those under 65 with qualifying disabilities, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), or ALS. In Henderson, as across the country, Original Medicare includes:
- Part A — Hospital, inpatient care, skilled nursing facility, hospice, and some home health services
- Part B — Doctor visits, outpatient services, preventive care, and some home health services
Original Medicare does not cover routine dental, vision, or hearing, and provides limited prescription drug coverage. For those gaps, Henderson residents have strong additional options.
Nevada Medicare can provide personalized assistance and show you a solution that gives you peace of mind.

- Medicare Advantage (Part C) Medicare Advantage plans are offered by private insurers approved by Medicare and must cover everything Original Medicare covers (except hospice). Many plans available in Henderson include valuable extras such as dental, vision, hearing, fitness programs, and over-the-counter allowances — often at little to no additional premium. Many Medicare Advantage plans in Henderson also include built-in Part D prescription drug coverage (MA-PD plans), combining hospital, medical, and drug benefits under one plan with one ID card.
Medicare Part D (Prescription Drug Plans) If you stay with Original Medicare, you can add a standalone Part D plan to help cover the cost of your medications. Plans vary by formulary, pharmacy network, and cost — which is why a personalized drug analysis matters before enrolling.
Medicare Supplement (Medigap) Medigap plans help cover out-of-pocket costs that Original Medicare doesn’t pay — such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. These plans are standardized by the federal government, meaning the benefits for each plan letter are the same regardless of carrier. Nevada Medicare compares pricing and rate increase history across 30+ carriers to find the best long-term value for Henderson residents.
Medigap (Medicare Supplement) insurance plans are also offered by private insurance companies and can help you pay your out-of-pocket costs for services covered under Original Medicare.
As an alternative way to get your Original Medicare benefits, you may be eligible to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan in Nevada. Offered by private insurance companies that contract with CMS, these plans provide at least the same level of Medicare benefits as the federal program (with the exception of hospice care, which is paid by Medicare Part A).
In addition, many Medicare Advantage plans also include additional coverage beyond Original Medicare, such as routine dental and vision care. Unlike Original Medicare, some plans may include prescription drug coverage alongside medical coverage. Also known as Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (MA-PD) plans, these plans provide your Medicare Part A, Part B, and Part D benefits under a single plan.
To be eligible for a Medicare Advantage plan, you must have Medicare Part A and Part B, live in the service area of a Medicare Advantage plan, and not have end-stage renal disease (with some exceptions).
Keep in mind that you’ll need to keep paying your Medicare Part B premium, in addition to any additional premium required by your Medicare Advantage plan.
