Medicare Plans in New York City, NY
Comparing Medicare across the five boroughs? A licensed advisor can help you weigh Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Part D for your borough — in plain language, with no pressure.
Across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, New York City is one of the largest Medicare markets in the nation. Each borough is its own county, and Medicare plan options are organized at the county level.
How Medicare works in New York City
Original Medicare (Parts A and B) is a federal program, so the basics are the same in every borough. What changes locally is which Medicare Advantage and New York Part D plans are offered, because availability and provider networks are set by county — and in New York City, each borough is a separate county: New York (Manhattan), Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Bronx, and Richmond (Staten Island).
That means a plan available in Brooklyn may differ from one in the Bronx. New York also has special rules that make Medicare Supplement plans available year-round under guaranteed issue, which can matter when you compare options. A local, independent advisor reviews the plans available at your address — matched to your doctors, your medications, and your budget. New to Medicare? Start with our Medicare 101 guide.
Each NYC borough is its own county, so Medicare Advantage and drug plan options can differ from one borough to the next. We focus on what is available where you live.
