Ready for Medigap? Five Things to Know Before Getting Medicare Supplement Insurance

6/14/2021

​Having insurance can already lessen one’s worries and financial problems. Even more, there are Medicare Supplement Insurance plans or Medigap plans to provide an additional safety net. Here are five things to know before obtaining a Medigap:
  1. Medicare Alone May Not Be Enough
    Medicare Supplement Insurance covers any instances not paid for by Medicare, such as instances while traveling abroad. It helps people settle their hospital bills and clinical procedures that they will otherwise pay out-of-the-pocket for.   

  2. A Fulfilling Life After Retirement is Possible
    After years of hard work, a post-retirement life could mean going on luxurious trips or paying for expensive hobbies. For a retiree, it paints a beautiful picture of living their remaining years to the fullest. But, paying for hefty hospital and patient care costs can derail these plans.

  3. It is Necessary to Some People
    People obtain different Medicare programs, such as Part A, Part B, or both. Part A provides for hospital costs while Part B pays for other medical expenses. Furthermore, people with Plan A insurance qualify for premium-free Medicare.

    On the other hand, people with Plan B may need to pay for high premiums, deductibles, and co-pay. Considering their differences, Medicare Supplement Insurance is necessary for people with Medicare Plan B.

  4. Medicare Supplement Insurance Companies Offers Policies Differently
    When choosing a company, it is crucial to know the companies’ Medicare Supplement Insurance policies. Also, insurance companies provide added value to their clients. For example, some companies have wide acceptance across the country. Others offer 24-hour medical consultation hotlines for clients, while some offer discounts for spouses.

    Choosing the best company to get Medicare Supplement Insurance can give more than one’s money’s worth.

  5. Look Out for Illegal Business Practices
    The government regulates insurance companies that offer Medicare Supplement Insurance. The following practices are considered illegal by the authorities:
    - Forcing people to buy Medigap insurance
    - Offering Medigap policies that are against state regulations and laws
    - Selling a Medigap policy to consumers with Medicaid, subject to specific cases
    - Selling a secondary Medigap policy to consumers

    Knowing these can help consumers reach out to legitimate agencies for their Medicare Supplement Insurance. 

Conclusion
This information can help clients make decisions when purchasing their supplemental insurance. It can also prevent them from falling prey to illegal practices.
