Medicare number — Virginia Beach, VA
Last updated: September 24, 2026
What affects the price
Medicare costs aren't one-size-fits-all. Your monthly premium and out-of-pocket expenses depend on several specific factors. Your zip code matters, as local plan availability varies significantly by region. The type of coverage you select—whether it is a Medicare Supplement or a Medicare Advantage plan—plays a major role in what you pay. Additionally, your current health needs, the specific prescription medications you take, and your preferred doctors can shift your total costs up or down. Because these variables change for every individual, there is no flat rate for everyone. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in Virginia Beach
What is the standard Medicare Part B premium in Virginia Beach?
The standard Medicare Part B premium is set annually by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), not by local Virginia Beach providers. However, individuals with higher incomes may pay a higher amount, known as an Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA). Understanding this base cost is essential when comparing supplemental plans.
Where can I find the main Medicare phone number?
The primary Medicare phone number for general inquiries is 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). This toll-free line is available nationwide, including for residents of Virginia Beach, and can provide information on enrollment, benefits, and other Medicare-related questions. It's a good starting point for most of your Medicare queries.
How do seniors in Virginia Beach typically afford Medicare coverage?
Seniors in Virginia Beach, and across the country, afford Medicare through a combination of Original Medicare (Parts A and B) and often supplemental plans. Many utilize employer-sponsored retiree plans or purchase Medigap policies to cover costs Original Medicare doesn't. Medicare Advantage plans offer an alternative by bundling benefits, often with predictable co-pays.
Does Medicare provide coverage for in-home care services in Virginia Beach?
Medicare can pay for certain types of in-home care, primarily if it's medically necessary and ordered by a doctor as part of a home health care plan. This typically includes skilled nursing care, physical therapy, or occupational therapy. It generally does not cover long-term custodial care or personal assistance without a skilled need.
What is the role of NGS Medicare in Virginia Beach?
National Government Services (NGS) Medicare is a Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) that processes Medicare Part A and Part B claims for providers in Virginia, including those in Virginia Beach. While you interact directly with Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE for your benefits, NGS is involved in the backend processing for healthcare providers.
How do Medicare Supplement (Medigap) policies work with Original Medicare?
Medicare Supplement Insurance, or Medigap, policies are sold by private insurance companies to help fill the 'gaps' in Original Medicare (Part A and Part B) coverage. These plans help pay for costs like deductibles, co-insurance, and co-payments. In Virginia Beach, you can choose from standardized plans, each identified by a letter, offering different levels of coverage.
Can I get Medicare Advantage coverage in Virginia Beach?
Yes, Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans are available in Virginia Beach. These plans are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare and combine Part A and Part B benefits into one plan, often including prescription drug coverage (Part D). They can offer an alternative to Original Medicare plus a Medigap plan.
