How Medicare works in Grand Rapids

Original Medicare (Parts A and B) is a federal program, so the basics are the same across West Michigan — whether you live in downtown Grand Rapids, on the northeast side, or out toward Kentwood and Walker. What changes locally is which Medicare Advantage and Michigan Part D plans are offered, because availability and provider networks are set by county.

Kent County is one of the largest and fastest-growing counties in Michigan, with a strong network of West Michigan hospitals and a wide range of Medicare Advantage and drug plan choices. With so many options, it helps to have someone compare them side by side. A local, independent advisor reviews the options available at your address — matched to your doctors, your medications, and your budget. New to Medicare? Start with our Medicare 101 guide.
