There are two categories to consider: the U.S. spends an average of $12,000 per person, per year on those under Medicare A & B with a Medigap plan. This amount is less than the payout for Medicare Advantage customers in 2023.

In 2023, the U.S. spent a total of $839 billion, and is projected to increase to over 1.6 trillion by 2023.
