Complete Coverage With One Plan from One Company
Unlike Original Medicare, PHP Advantage bundles your medical, hospital and prescription drug coverage together in one comprehensive plan. Additionally, our plans come with a number of valuable extra benefits that will save you time and money.

Important Travel Coverage
Whether you are making a trip out of the state or out of the country, we have you covered. If you ever get sick or injured when away from home, you can rest easy knowing you have emergency or urgent care coverage.

Important Financial Protection
PHP Advantage protects your savings and retirement by putting an annual limit on what you have to pay out of your own pocket for your covered medical expenses – important protection not offered by Original Medicare.

Valuable Extra Benefits
Every PHP Advantage plan comes with important extra benefits for no additional premium including dental, vision, transportation to and from doctor appointments, free memberships to health clubs through the popular SilverSneakers® program, and coverage on over-the-counter products such as non-prescription drugs and health-related items.

$0 Copay on Generic Prescriptions
Save even more money on your prescription drugs when you fill your prescription at preferred pharmacies. PHP Advantage members can get generic prescriptions for $0 copays and reduced copays on brand-name medications at any participating preferred pharmacy.
