Why You Should Keep Your Medigap Plan
Important Considerations:
Stay Up to Date on Medicare!
- Comprehensive Coverage: Plan G offers comprehensive coverage, filling the gaps left by Original Medicare (Part A and Part B).
- Predictable Costs: Your out-of-pocket costs are predictable and manageable. Once you meet the annual Part B deductible, the plan covers the rest of your Medicare-approved expenses for the year. This predictable structure provides financial peace of mind, especially for seniors on a fixed income.
- Freedom to Choose Doctors: Unlike Medicare Advantage Plans, which often restrict you to a network of healthcare providers, Medigap Plan G allows you to see any healthcare provider who accepts Medicare. You don't need referrals to see specialists; you can receive care from the doctors and hospitals you trust.
- No Copayments for Doctor Visits: Medigap Plan G covers your Part B coinsurance and excess charges, meaning you won't have copayments for doctor visits and other outpatient services, saving you money.
- Stability: Once you enroll in a Medigap plan, you can keep it for as long as you want, as long as you pay the premium. The benefits and coverage won't change so you know what to expect.
- Network Restrictions: You are often limited to a network of providers, and out-of-network care can result in higher costs.
- Cost Structure: Typically have copayments, deductibles, and varying cost-sharing structures, which can be challenging to predict.
- Yearly Changes: Advantage plans can change their benefits, formularies, and networks yearly, potentially leading to coverage gaps and higher out-of-pocket costs.
