The Value of Medigap
- Lower monthly premiums than most Medigap options.
- One card for hospital, medical, and usually prescriptions.
- Extras (dental/vision/hearing/fitness) not found in Original Medicare.
- An annual out-of-pocket maximum that caps what you spend on covered Part A/B services.
What Medigap Does and Doesn’t
- Does: Reduce your out-of-pocket exposure for Part A and Part B services, creating predictable costs.
- Doesn’t: Include prescription drug coverage (you’ll add Part D). Doesn’t include dental/vision/hearing extras.
Common Medigap Options in Boise
- Plan G: The most comprehensive for new enrollees; you pay the Part B deductible, then nearly everything else is covered.
- Plan N: Lower premium than G, with small co-pays for certain visits and potential excess charge exposure in some states (Idaho rules apply).
- High-Deductible Plan G (HD-G): Low monthly premium but you’re responsible for a higher annual deductible before benefits fully kick in.
Because Medigap benefits are standardized, “Plan G is Plan G” across carriers—differences are in price, service, and rate stability.
Medigap vs. Advantage — Choosing Your Comfort Zone
| Factor | Medigap | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly Premium | Higher | Lower/often $0 |
| Provider Choice | Any Medicare provider | Network (HMO/PPO) |
| Part D | Add separately | Usually included |
| Extras | None | Often dental/vision/hearing |
| Stability | Very stable | Can change yearly |
Choose Medigap if you value provider freedom, predictable costs, and stability. Consider Advantage if you prefer lower premiums and don’t mind networks.
Enrollment & Underwriting (Important)
- Best time to buy: Your 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment Period starts when you’re both 65+ and enrolled in Part B. During this window, you can buy any Medigap plan offered in Idaho without medical underwriting.
- After that: You may face underwriting, meaning health history can affect acceptance/rates—unless you qualify for Guaranteed Issue rights during certain changes.
- Switching from Advantage: It’s possible, but underwriting may apply if you’re outside Guaranteed Issue windows. We’ll guide you on timing.
Who is a Great Fit for Medigap?
- You want doctor freedom in Boise and nationwide.
- You visit multiple specialists or anticipate more care.
- You travel or split time between Idaho and other states.
- You prefer stability even if it means a higher monthly premium.
