Boise Idaho Medicare Supplement Plans

Chris Antrim • Oct 11, 2021

Having multiple coverages is the best way to protect yourself from any danger. An additional policy you can add to your Original Medicare is Medicare Supplement Insurance or sometimes referred to as Medigap Insurance.


We all know that your Original Medicare is not designed to pay for all your medical costs. There are many exclusions or gaps that your Original Medicare does not cover such as coinsurance and deductibles.


One way to fill in that gap is to buy additional coverage with Medicare supplement plans.


Why Medigap policies?

Why not! Idaho Medigap policies consist of eleven different standardized plans, each policy is named by a letter “A” through “N”.

Since each plan is standardized, the benefits it provides in any plan with the same letter will be the same, whoever the company sells you the plan. The only difference is the cost of the plan will vary from company to company.


The best Medicare supplement plan for everyone will depend on your healthcare needs and situations. For the year 2021, the most comprehensive plan will be Plan G as well as the most expensive coverage available for Medigap.


The Best Way To Choose Medicare Supplements Plan

Choosing the best supplement plans will vary on which parts of Original Medicare you want the gaps to fill. In order to get the most out of your policies, you need to choose a supplement policy that provides the best benefits for you.


For New Enrollees

Plan G is the best overall plan that provides the most coverage for seniors. This plan is very similar to plan F that can cover almost everything except the Part B deductible. As we mentioned earlier, Plan G is one of the most expensive plans among all the Medicare supplements. Learn to weigh the cost of his plan with your potential medical expenses for the entire year.


Cheap Medicare Supplement Policies

If Plan G is considered one of the most expensive plans, Plan K provides the cheapest Medigap policy which can cover some components for Original Medicare costs. Plan K is considerably different from many other Medigap policies, it provides only 50% coverage for Part b coinsurance, blood, Part A hospice and deductible, and skilled nursing. This policy is a bit crucial for an individual who needs health insurance coverage for skilled nursing. A premium with much cheaper is something you look forward to in this plan.


Alternative Plan to Plan G

Looking for a plan that has the same comprehensive coverage as Plan G? You may want to look into Plan N.  This plan is an excellent option for individuals who can afford or do not want to purchase Plan G. It combines low premiums with sufficient comprehensive coverage. However, it does not cover the benefit for your Part B deductible or excess charges. On the other hand, it covers everything else at 100% except for emergency coverage while traveling which can be covered up to 80%.


**Here in Idaho, Plan G and N have become increasingly popular plans for every individual, as Plan G offers comprehensive coverage that will fill the gaps you need while Plan N is an alternative policy that also has similarities to Plan G.


In line with this, though your Original Medicare does not cover all your healthcare expenses, looking for a supplementary policy that will help you cover the gaps you need will be a wise solution for your situation. Make sure to ask for a skilled agent before buying any policy. That way they can help you assess your situations and individual needs on what plan is best for you, for your lifestyle, and budget.
