What Is Medigap Plan G?
Medigap Plan G has many benefits, including Part A coinsurance and hospital costs up to an additional 365 days after Medicare benefits are used up, Part B coinsurance or co-payment, first three pints of blood, Part A hospice care coinsurance or co-payment, 80 percent of foreign travel emergency exchange, and skilled nursing facility care benefits. However, it does not include the Medicare Part B deductible. This should be taken into consideration before choosing a plan.
If you do not mind assuming the risk for the Part B deductible, then this could be the right plan for you.
Plan G also includes coverage for home-based recovery care and covers 100 percent of Medicare Part B excess charges.
It can be difficult to determine which plan is right for you, and not all insurance carriers offer all of the Medicare Supplement Plans. Most insurance carriers offer a variety of plans, and our licensed sales agents can help you shop around for the plan that will best fit your needs and budget.
