Medicare Supplement plans are an alternative option to Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans.
Medicare Supplement plans are also called "Medigap" plans because they fill in the 'gaps' not covered by Original Medicare. Original Medicare only covers 80% of your Part A and Part B expenses. The remaining 20% costs can be devastating if you have a serious medical illness.
Medigap plans provider coverage for copays, coinsurance and deductibles.
Medigap plans may cover most or all coinsurance costs for:
Inpatient hospitals
Skilled nursing facilities
Hospice care
Part-time home health services
They may cover coinsurance or copay costs for Part B medical services and equipment including:
Doctors visits
Outpatient procedures
Durable Medical Equipment
Lab work
There are several important advantages provided by Medigap plans including:
Nationwide coverage - your plan is accepted anywhere that takes Medicare
No networks or prior authorizations - you can choose any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare
No referrals required to see specialists
No claims paperwork - all claims are filed automatically on your behalf
While comprehensive, Medigap plans do not cover:
Dental, vision and hearing benefits
Prescription drug coverage
Medigap plans are often paired with a standalone Part D plan to provide prescription drug coverage.
Beneficiaries enrolled in a Medigap plan may choose to add an ancillary plan to cover dental, vision and hearing benefits.
Medigap plans are differentiated by their plan letter.
There are 10 types of Medicare Supplement plans that are offered in most states. These types of plans are named by a letter: A, B, C, D, F, G, K, L, M, N.
Every plan letter offers the same coverage. The only difference between plans with the same letter is their price!
There are some differences with Medicare Supplement plan standardization in Massachusetts, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
