Original Medicare (Parts A and B) is a federal program, so the basics are the same across northern New Jersey — whether you live in the Ironbound, downtown Newark, or out toward the Oranges. What changes locally is which Medicare Advantage and New Jersey Part D plans are offered, because availability and provider networks are set by county.
