The Good

  • Informative, Helpful Website
  • Consumer-Focused

Informative, Helpful Website

Medicare.net offers detailed information on the pros and cons Medicare Advantage plans and Original Medicare. It also offers helpful information on Medicare Parts and how Medicare works. 

The information available on Medicare.net is more detailed and helpful than what some competitor sites offer.

Medicare.net also makes it easy to shop for Medicare by state and by company. While you can only shop for Medigap plans by company, the ability to compare plan coverage and view plans specific to your state is helpful.

Consumer-Focused

Medicare.net is focused on helping Medicare beneficiaries. The company is compensated by some insurers for the exposure, not leads. Medicare.net says it's focused on helping consumers connect with top insurers.

The Bad

  • Outdated Pages
  • Conflicting Information
  • Limited Customer Reviews

Outdated Pages

Some pages on Medicare.net are outdated. Examples include the pages on prescription discount cards and the pages on shopping for a Medigap plan by company. These outdated pages are concerning because companies sometimes change their offerings.

While Medicare.net may still be a good resource for somethings, keep in mind that some pages may be outdated even if a date is not noted.

Conflicting Information

On the website, Medicare.net says that it does not have licensed insurance agents on staff to avoid a conflict of interest resulting from Medicare coverage plan sales. However, there is a phone number listed on the website that you can call to connect with a licensed insurance agent.

Medicare.net may work with an insurance agency instead of in-house agents, but it would be nice to have more clarity on this from the website.

Limited Customer Reviews

Best Company has not received many Medicare.net reviews from customers. This lack of reviews means that general conclusions about the customer experience and recommendations cannot be made currently.

The Bottom Line

Although Medicare.net offers many helpful resources including Medicare plan comparison, some of its pages are outdated and there is some confusion about how Medicare.net works with licensed insurance agents. 

If you're just starting to learn about Medicare, you may benefit from some of Medicare.net's content, but watch out for dates on when the content was last updated.
