Question: 1 / 50

What is Mr. Sanchez required to do in order to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan?

Disenroll from his employer plan

Enroll in Part B

For Mr. Sanchez to successfully enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan, he is required to be enrolled in Medicare Part A and Part B. The correct option highlights the necessity of enrolling in Part B, which is essential because Medicare Advantage plans are designed to provide coverage that includes both hospital insurance (Part A) and medical insurance (Part B). Moreover, enrolling in Part B enables Mr. Sanchez to access the comprehensive services offered by Medicare Advantage plans, as these plans often include additional benefits beyond Original Medicare, such as vision, hearing, and dental coverage. Without Part B enrollment, he would not be eligible for these comprehensive plans. The other options involve factors that may or may not be relevant depending on individual circumstances; they do not directly address the foundational requirement of having Part B to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan. Therefore, focusing on the importance of Part B enrollment is crucial for understanding the enrollment process for Medicare Advantage programs.
