Frequently Asked Questions
Medigap Basics
Medigap (Medicare Supplement Insurance) is private insurance that helps pay some of the healthcare costs that Original Medicare (Parts A and B) doesn't cover, such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medigap policies are standardized and sold by private insurance companies.
The best time to buy a Medigap policy is during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period. This 6-month period starts the first month you're 65 or older and enrolled in Medicare Part B. During this time, you have guaranteed issue rights to buy any Medigap policy sold in your state, regardless of health conditions.
No, it's illegal for anyone to sell you a Medigap policy if you have a Medicare Advantage Plan. You must have Original Medicare (Parts A and B) to purchase Medigap. You'll need to decide between Medicare Advantage or Original Medicare with a Medigap policy.
Coverage & Costs
Medigap policies can help pay for:
- Part A coinsurance and hospital costs
- Part B coinsurance or copayment
- Blood (first 3 pints)
- Part A hospice care coinsurance
- Skilled nursing facility care coinsurance
- Part A and/or Part B deductibles (depending on plan)
- Part B excess charges (Plans F and G)
- Foreign travel emergency coverage (most plans)
Medigap premiums vary by insurance company, plan type, location, age, and sometimes health status (if not during guaranteed issue). In addition to your Medigap premium, you'll still pay your monthly Part B premium. Plan G is typically the most popular, with premiums ranging from $100-$300/month depending on your location and age.
