Medicare Supplement (Medigap) Plans

Clear Answers. Honest Guidance. No Pressure — Ever.
If you’re researching Medicare Supplement plans, chances are you’re trying to do the right thing — not just for today, but for the years ahead. This page is different.

Why So Many People Choose Medicare Supplement Insurance

A Medicare Supplement plan — often called Medigap — is designed for people who value freedom, stability, and predictability in their healthcare.

Rather than replacing Medicare, Medigap works with Original Medicare (Part A and Part B) to help reduce out-of-pocket costs. For many clients, Medigap isn’t about getting “more benefits.” It’s about removing uncertainty.

A Medicare Supplement plan may be right for you if:

See any doctor nationwide who accepts Medicare

Travel frequently or live in more than one state

Prefer predictable medical expenses instead of surprise bills

Don't want referrals, prior authorizations, or provider networks

Willing to pay a higher monthly premium for peace of mind

Note: If lower monthly premiums and bundled extras like dental or vision are more important to you, a Medicare Advantage plan may also be worth exploring. I help clients compare both — honestly and side-by-side.

How Medicare Supplement Plans Actually Work

Simple. Predictable. Designed to reduce out-of-pocket costs

Original Medicare Pays First

Part A & Part B covers hospital care and doctor services — but leaves deductibles and coinsurance behind.

Medigap Helps Pay What Medicare Doesn't

Deductibles, copays, and coinsurance — depending on the plan you choose.

Works Together — Not Instead Of

See any doctor nationwide who accepts Medicare. No networks or referrals. More predictable medical costs.

Important Note

Medigap does not include prescription drug coverage. A separate Medicare Part D plan is required — something I help coordinate carefully.

The Medicare Supplement Plans People Ask About Most

Medigap plans are standardized by the federal government. That means the benefits of each plan letter are identical, no matter which insurance company offers them.
What isn’t identical? Monthly premiums, Rate increase history, and Long-term pricing behavior

Common Medicare Supplement Questions (Answered Clearly)

Yes. You can see any doctor nationwide who accepts Medicare.

No networks and no referrals are required.

Sometimes. Outside your open enrollment period, medical underwriting may apply.

Each insurance company sets its own pricing and rate increase strategy. Choosing the right company matters just as much as choosing the right plan.

Neither is ‘better’ universally — they’re designed for different needs. The right choice depends on you. I help clients compare both — honestly and side-by-side.
