We get this question all the time from people in Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Orange Park:

“What’s the best Medicare Advantage plan?”

Here’s the honest answer:
There is no one-size-fits-all best plan.
There’s only the best plan for you.

Let’s break down how we help people in Northeast Florida find the right Medicare Advantage plan—and what red flags to watch out for.

How We Compare Advantage Plans Locally

✅ We check provider networks across Duval, Clay, St. Johns, and Nassau Counties
✅ We confirm if your specialists and hospitals are in-network
✅ We analyze plan extras (dental, vision, gym, over-the-counter benefits)
✅ We flag daily hospital copays, max out-of-pocket costs, and prior authorization traps

Watch Out For:

⚠️ "Giveback" plans that remove other critical benefits
⚠️ Drug coverage gaps
⚠️ Plans that drop your doctor mid-year
⚠️ Over-promised extras that sound good—but fall flat in real life

Frequently Asked Questions about Medicare Advantage Plans in Northeast Florida

What’s the best Medicare Advantage plan in Northeast Florida?

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. The best plan depends on your doctors, prescriptions, and personal needs. At Mere Benefits, we help you compare local options across Duval, Clay, St. Johns, and Nassau Counties to find the plan that fits you best.

How do I know if my doctor is covered under a Medicare Advantage plan?

We personally check if your preferred doctors, specialists, and hospitals are in-network. This is one of the most important steps in making sure your plan works for you.

Are all Medicare Advantage plans the same?

Not at all. Plans vary in coverage, provider networks, and out-of-pocket costs. Some may look great on paper but have hidden limitations—like prior authorizations or drug coverage gaps.

What are “giveback” plans, and should I be cautious?

“Giveback” plans refund part of your Part B premium, but they may cut other valuable benefits. We help you understand what you’re trading off before you decide.

Can Medicare Advantage plans change after I enroll?

Yes—plans can drop doctors mid-year or change their benefits. That’s why working with a local expert like Mere Benefits helps you stay informed and avoid surprises.
