Compare Standardized Medigap Plans

 
As you begin shopping and learning about the various Medigap companies, you’ll quickly notice that there’s a big difference in cost. Some companies charge more even though the coverage is exactly the same.
 
It’s one of the most misunderstood parts about Medicare supplement companies and plans. You need to start out by understanding that our government standardized Medicare supplements beginning in early 1990s. They did this to make sure shoppers like you could compare similar Medigap plan letters and know that the coverage is the same no matter which company you purchased it from.
 
In other words, if you’re shopping for Medigap Plan G – your doctor network, coverage and benefits will all be the same no matter the company you choose. Everything is the same except for cost! The same rules apply with Plan F and Plan N too!

FAQ

The top Medigap company will depend on a few factors which include your age, gender, tobacco use and the state you live in. If you're new to Medicare, it's always wise to work with an independent insurance broker who can find the best medicare supplement plans and compare multiple companies for you.

You have a few Medicare options when buying an insurance plan. The two most popular types of plans are Medicare Supplement plans and Medicare Advantage plans. They are both sold by private insurance companies, but are very different in how they provide coverage. Medicare Supplements cover the gaps in Medicare's standard coverage and you're still enrolled in Original Medicare. There are no networks and you can see any Medicare provider. With Medicare Advantage Plans, you have networks, require prior authorization, and Medicare is no longer managing your care; the Medicare Advantage plan is now managing your care.

All Medicare insurance companies provide the same benefits when you compare the same standardized plans. This means that a Mutual of Omaha Medicare Supplement Plan G has the same exact benefits as any other company offering Plan G. The only difference is price!

 

Medigap Plan G and Plan N are currently the most popular plans for those currently eligible for Medicare. Plan F was the most popular plan, but unless you were eligible for Medicare by Dec. 31, 2019, you can’t buy Plan F.

Best decision I made going through REMEDIGAP. I must have watched 40-50 videos from several different carriers and they mostly seemed shady. One I spoke to Joann and walked through options, received some quotes she took care of the rest with absolutely no pressure.
