  • New to Medicare
  • No Part D

Limited Customer Insight

Oscar has not recieved many customer reviews for Medicare on Best Company. With such limited customer insight, general conclusions about Oscar's Medicare plans and recommendations are not available.

New to Medicare

Oscar started offering Medicare Advantage plans for 2020. Since Oscar is new to Medicare Advantage plans, some may prefer to choose a company with more Medicare-related experience.

While new, Oscar has good experience in the health insurance industry making health plans simple and affordable.

No Part D

Oscar does not offer Medicare Part D. Medicare Part D offers coverage for prescription drugs. If you need coverage for prescriptions, you may have to purchase a Medicare Part D plan from another company.

Because they are refusing to pay for a stint for glacoma that is covered by medicare, after I paid 7350.00 deduct and 646.00 a month in premiums, I cannot give Oscar high marks.
