Where New Hampshire sits among the states
35.5% of everyone with Medicare in New Hampshire is in a Medicare Advantage or other health plan rather than Original Medicare. That puts New Hampshire 42th of 51, between North Dakota above it and District of Columbia below. Across the country the same figure runs from 62.8% in Michigan down to 3.0% in Alaska, so what counts as the ordinary choice depends on where a person lives, and this is what it is where they do.
