Humana MAPD vs. PDP: What’s the difference?

An MAPD may be a good choice for people who are looking for plan options that offer low out-of-pocket costs for premiums, copays and deductibles. MAPD plans may also be right for people who want the additional benefits that MAPD plans may offer, like coverage for routine dental, vision and hearing care.

If you travel often to see the grandkids or spend a lot of time away from home, Original Medicare travels with you—but it doesn’t cover prescription drugs. Purchasing a PDP will give you that valuable coverage, but you’ll have to pay a monthly plan premium for it.
