The number of Medicare Advantage plans is increasing, while typically being of higher quality and yielding more cost-savings as opposed to fee-for-service Medicare, Better Medicare Alliance argued in its State of Medicare Advantage report. Medicare Advantage has become almost ubiquitous in the U.S., with the number of plans jumping 49% since 2017. On average, there are 39 plans available per county. This increased volume means that nearly all Medicare beneficiaries can access at least one Medicare Advantage plan in 2020.
