1 & Medicare You 2018 This is the official U.S. government Medicare handbook. Learn about your new Medicare card (inside front cover) What Medicare covers (page 29) CENTERS for MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES
2 Section 6: What are Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) Policies? 79 Original Medicare pays for much, but not all, of the cost for health care services and supplies. Medicare Supplement Insurance policies, sold by private companies, can help pay some of the remaining health care costs, like copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medicare Supplement Insurance policies are also called Medigap policies. Some Medigap policies also offer coverage for services that Original Medicare doesn t cover, like medical care when you travel outside the U.S. Generally, Medigap policies don t cover long-term care (like care in a nursing home), vision or dental care, hearing aids, eyeglasses, or private-duty nursing. Medigap policies are standardized Every Medigap policy must follow federal and state laws designed to protect you, and they must be clearly identified as Medicare Supplement Insurance. Insurance companies can sell you only a standardized policy identified in most states by letters A through D, F through G, and K through N. All policies offer the same basic benefits, but some offer additional benefits so you can choose which one meets your needs. In Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, Medigap policies are standardized in a different way.
3 80 Section 6: What are Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) Policies? How do I compare Medigap policies? The chart below shows basic information about the different benefits that Medigap policies cover. If a percentage appears, the Medigap plan covers that percentage of the benefit, and you re responsible for the rest. Benefits A B C D F* G K L M N Medicare Part A coinsurance and hospital costs (up to an additional 365 days after Medicare benefits are used) 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% Medicare Part B coinsurance or copayment Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) plans 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 50% 75% 100% 100% ** Blood (first 3 pints) 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 50% 75% 100% 100% Part A hospice care 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 50% 75% 100% 100% coinsurance or copayment Skilled nursing facility care 100% 100% 100% 100% 50% 75% 100% 100% coinsurance Part A deductible 100% 100% 100% 100% 100% 50% 75% 50% 100% Part B deductible 100% 100% Part B excess charges 100% 100% Foreign travel emergency (up to plan limits) 80% 80% 80% 80% 80% 80% Out-ofpocket limit in 2017 $5,120 $2,560 * Plan F also offers a high-deductible plan in some states. If you choose this option, this means you must pay for Medicare-covered costs (coinsurance, copayments, and deductibles) up to the deductible amount of $2,200 in 2017 before your policy pays anything. ** Plan N pays 100% of the Part B coinsurance, except for a copayment of up to $20 for some office visits and up to a $50 copayment for emergency room visits that don t result in an inpatient admission.
4 Section 6: What are Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) Policies? 81 What else should I know about Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap)? Important facts You must have Part A and Part B. You pay the private insurance company a monthly premium for your Medigap policy in addition to your monthly Part B premium that you pay to Medicare. Contact the company to find out how to pay your premium. A Medigap policy only covers one person. Spouses must buy separate policies. You can t have prescription drug coverage in both your Medigap policy and a Medicare drug plan. See page 94. It s important to compare Medigap policies since the costs can vary and may go up as you get older. Some states limit Medigap premium costs. In some states, you may be able to buy another type of Medigap policy called Medicare SELECT. If you buy a Medicare SELECT policy, you have rights to change your mind within 12 months and switch to a standard Medigap policy. Definitions of blue words are on pages When to buy The best time to buy a Medigap policy is during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period. This 6-month period begins on the first day of the month in which you re 65 or older and enrolled in Part B. (Some states have additional Open Enrollment Periods.) After this enrollment period, you may not be able to buy a Medigap policy. If you re able to buy one, it may cost more. If you delay enrolling in Part B because you have group health coverage based on your (or your spouse s) current employment, your Medigap Open Enrollment Period won t start until you sign up for Part B. Federal law generally doesn t require insurance companies to sell Medigap policies to people under 65. If you re under 65, you might not be able to buy the Medigap policy you want, or any Medigap policy, until you turn 65. However, some states require Medigap insurance companies to sell Medigap policies to people under 65. If you re able to buy one, it may cost more.
5 82 Section 6: What are Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) Policies? How does Medigap work with Medicare Advantage Plans? If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO), it s illegal for anyone to sell you a Medigap policy unless you re switching back to Original Medicare. If you re not planning to leave your Medicare Advantage Plan, and someone tries to sell you a Medigap policy, report it to your State Insurance Department. If you have a Medigap policy and join a Medicare Advantage Plan, you may want to drop your Medigap policy. Your Medigap policy can t be used to pay your Medicare Advantage Plan copayments, deductibles, and premiums. If you want to cancel your Medigap policy, contact your insurance company. In most cases, if you drop your Medigap policy to join a Medicare Advantage Plan, you won t be able to get it back. If you join a Medicare Advantage Plan for the first time, and you aren t happy with the plan, you ll have special rights under federal law to buy a Medigap policy if you return to Original Medicare within 12 months of joining. If you had a Medigap policy before you joined, you may be able to get the same policy back if the company still sells it. If it isn t available, you can buy another Medigap policy. If you joined a Medicare Advantage Plan when you were first eligible for Medicare, you can choose from any Medigap policy within the first year of joining. You may be able to join a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan. Some states provide additional special rights. Definitions of blue words are on pages Where can I get more information?
