Best for what?
No plan is best for everyone. The plan with the lowest premium can cost the most in a year you're in hospital, and the one with the most dental money may not cover your doctor. So we pick one plan for each thing people most often shop for, from the 17 Medicare Advantage plans with drug coverage open to anyone with Medicare in Howard County, and say why it wins and what it gives up. Start with whatever matters most to you.
