Works alongside Original Medicare to help pay the costs Parts A and B don't.
What is Medicare Supplement (Medigap)?
A Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan works alongside Original Medicare and helps pay certain out-of-pocket costs that Original Medicare doesn't pay — such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles.
If you choose a Medicare Supplement plan, you may also need a separate Part D prescription drug plan, since Medigap does not cover prescription drugs. I help you pair the right Medigap and Part D plans for your situation.
Key benefits
Fills the gaps
Helps pay copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles that Original Medicare leaves to you.
Doctor flexibility
With Original Medicare plus Medigap, you can generally see any doctor who accepts Medicare nationwide.
Standardized plans
Plans are standardized by letter (A–N), so a Plan G from one insurer offers the same basic benefits as Plan G from another.
Renewable
Medigap plans are guaranteed renewable as long as you pay your premium — your coverage can't be canceled due to health.
Things to consider
- The best time to buy a Medigap plan is during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period, when medical underwriting generally isn't required.
- Medigap does not cover prescription drugs — you'll need a separate Part D plan.
- Compare premiums carefully: the same lettered plan can be priced very differently between insurers.
- Medigap and Medicare Advantage generally can't be used together — you usually choose one or the other.
