Learn how Medicare Supplement coverage works.
Medicare Supplement insurance, also called Medigap, is designed to help pay certain out-of-pocket costs left by Original Medicare. A licensed agent can explain standardized plan types, premiums, eligibility, and enrollment timing.
WHAT TO CONSIDER
Compare benefits, premiums, and timing.
Benefits are standardized by plan letter, but premiums, underwriting rules, discounts, and customer service can differ by insurance company.
Monthly premiums
Premiums can vary by carrier, age, location, rating method, household discounts, and other factors.
Enrollment timing
Your Medicare Supplement open enrollment period and guaranteed-issue rights can affect your options.
Prescription coverage
Most people who want prescription coverage pair Original Medicare and a supplement with a separate Part D plan.
