Best Answer

A Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan, or Medigap Policy, helps cover your share of Medicare Part B cost. You can choose between Medicare Supplement Plans A-N.

All plans offer Part B co insurance. Some plans offer skilled nursing benefits or foreign emergency travel while others do not. Consult with a Medigap provider to determine which Medigap Policy suits your needs.

Where can one find good Medigap plans?

Every Medigap policy must follow federal and state laws designed to protect you, and it must be clearly identified as "Medicare Supplement Insurance." Insurance companies can sell you only a "standardized" policy identified in most states by letters.

You may be able to choose up to 12 different standardized Medigap policies (Medigap Plans A through L). Medigap policies must follow Federal and State laws. These laws protect you. A Medigap policy must be clearly identified on the cover as “Medicare Supplement Insurance.” Each plan, A through L, has a different set of basic and extra benefits.


How do you get a supplement insurance to Medicare when you are under 65?

If you are on Medicare due to disability or End Stage Renal Disease(is this the reason you have Medicare under age 65?), you will need to look into a Medicare Advantage Plan instead of a Medicare Supplement also called Medigap. This is what Medicare says: If you are a person with Medicare under age 65 and have a disability or ESRD, you might not be able to buy the Medigap (also called "Medicare Supplement Insurance") policy you want, or any Medigap policy, until you turn age 65. Federal law doesn't require insurance companies to sell Medigap policies to people under age 65. However, some states require Medigap insurance companies to sell you a Medigap policy, even if you are under age 65.
