Should I consider switching my Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan?
There is a huge price range for Medicare Supplement (Medigap) policies, and you may be able to save by switching. Insurers cannot reject you or charge more because of preexisting conditions if you buy a policy within six months of signing up for Medicare Part B. But after that, your health can affect your costs and coverage options. If you are healthy, you may qualify for a better priced plan with another company.
There are five reasons you may want to switch Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans:
- Your plan had a rate increase
- You are paying for benefits that you are not using
- You need more benefits
- You want a plan that costs less
- You are not happy with your current insurance company
