Medicare Supplement Insurance, or Medigap coverage, offers Original Medicare recipients extra help paying for typical out-of-pocket costs left over after Medicare pays their portion for Medicare-approved services. There are ten standardized Medicare Supplement Plans on the market, and each is assigned a letter. If you are looking for a plan with the most comprehensive coverage, you will likely be interested in Medigap Plan F.
What Is Medigap Plan F
Medigap Plan F is often thought to be the most comprehensive of all Medigap plans. It offers the broadest range of benefits coverage. Medigap Plan F covers both Plan A and Plan B deductibles, as well as all copays and coinsurance. This leaves beneficiaries with nothing to pay out-of-pocket for Medicare-approved health care services.
Why Choose Medigap Plan F
Medigap Plan F is the most popular Medigap plan, and for good reason. The fact that people who own this policy are required to pay nothing for covered services is an incredibly attractive benefit. With Plan F, you will never be required to pay 15% excess charges that Medicare is allowed to charge for Part B services, your Part A and Part B deductibles will be covered, and your plan is guaranteed renewable. Therefore, your coverage cannot be canceled due to your health status or claims history.
Medigap Plan F Cost
On average, Medigap Plan F policies fall into a cost range of about $120 to $140 a month for a female turning 65. This is a general estimate. Therefore you should work with an insurance agent to arrange a quote that is tailored specifically to you. Your personal characteristics and the different activities you engage in will dictate your insurance policies cost, so be sure to shop around to find the best deal.
How To Get Medigap Plan F
If you are interested in a Medigap Plan F policy, the best time to purchase one would be during the 6-month period that starts the first day of the month you turn 65 years old. During this period, you cannot be denied access to the most affordable version of a Medigap policy you are looking for. This means that insurance providers cannot reject your application due to your health status. Getting into a Medigap policy at this point can allow you to secure a plan with great pricing that you can renew each year with minimal hassle.
