Medicare Plans in Michigan
From one end of Michigan to the other, we help Michigan residents turning 65, retiring, or reviewing coverage compare their Medicare options in plain English — and choose the plan that fits their doctors, prescriptions, and budget.
May River Medicare is an independent agency serving Michigan. Because we’re independent — not tied to any one insurance company — we compare plans from more than 30 A-rated carriers and recommend what’s right for you, not what pays us most. Educate, empower, enroll — then stay in your corner for as long as you’re on Medicare.
The Medicare coverage we help Michigan residents with
Three main paths — and the right one depends on your health, your doctors, your prescriptions, and where in Michigan you live.
Medicare Supplement
Pairs with Original Medicare to cover much of what Parts A and B leave behind. Standardized and accepted by any doctor nationwide that takes Medicare — ideal if you travel or split time between states.
Medicare Advantage
All-in-one plans that often bundle drug, dental, and vision. Availability, networks, and extras vary by Michigan county and ZIP — we check exactly what’s offered where you live.
Prescription Drug Plans
Stand-alone drug coverage that keeps prescriptions affordable and helps you avoid the late-enrollment penalty. We match a plan to your exact medication list.
Find your county & confirm your ZIP
Medicare Advantage and Part D plans are approved county by county — often ZIP by ZIP. Check your area, then we’ll show the plans actually available at your address.
Do we serve your part of Michigan?
We cover all 83 counties. Start typing your county, or enter your ZIP code to confirm coverage and see your local plans.
Serving all 83 counties — including Detroit, Grand Rapids, Warren, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Flint.
Across Michigan
Michigan is known as the Great Lakes State — and wherever you are in it, we’re licensed and serving your area.
Medicare isn’t the same in every state
The national program is one thing — the plans, prices, and rules that actually reach you are local. That’s why Michigan deserves its own attention.
Medicare has national rules, but the details that affect your wallet and your doctors are set locally. Here’s what changes from state to state — and inside Michigan, from one county and ZIP to the next:
- Plan availability & networks — which Medicare Advantage plans exist, and which doctors and hospitals are in-network, are set by your county and ZIP within Michigan.
- Premiums & Part D drug coverage — monthly costs and prescription formularies are priced locally, not the same nationwide.
- Medigap rules & switching windows — how and when you can move between Medicare Supplement plans can differ from one state to the next.
- The carriers offered in Michigan — the insurance companies writing policies here aren’t the same everywhere, and rates vary between them.
We handle those Michigan details for you — and check your exact county and ZIP — so you compare the plans that actually apply to you, not a generic list.
Safe, private, and no pressure
We know handing over personal information online makes people nervous — especially where Medicare is concerned. Here’s our promise to you.
We keep your information safe — and ask for very little
To get started, the only information we ever ask for is on the short preliminary application. That’s it.
- We will never ask for your Social Security number, credit card, or banking information to get started.
- The only details we collect are the simple ones on the preliminary application — nothing more.
- We’re 110% committed to your privacy and security at every step.
- Your information is handled through our secure, HIPAA-compliant platform — monitored and logged for your protection.
- Always free, with no obligation and no pressure — ever.
- Talk to a real, licensed agent — never a scam call or a script.
Why Michigan beneficiaries choose us
Independent, not captive
We represent you, not one carrier — shopping 30+ A-rated companies to bring you the best fit, never steering you to a single brand.
Fully licensed in Michigan
We’re licensed and actively serving Michigan — you get a real, licensed agent who knows Medicare inside and out, not a call center reading a script.

When you can enroll
Missing a window can mean lifelong penalties. Here are the key ones — we’ll map your exact dates.
Initial Enrollment Period
A 7-month window — the 3 months before your birthday month, that month, and the 3 months after.
Medigap Open Enrollment
A one-time 6-month window beginning when you’re 65 and on Part B — buy any Medigap plan with no health questions.
Annual Enrollment (Oct 15 – Dec 7)
Switch or change Medicare Advantage and Part D plans for the coming year — a great time for a review.
Advantage Open Enrollment (Jan 1 – Mar 31)
Already in an Advantage plan? A chance to make a one-time change.
