You must have Medicare Part A and Part B to buy a Medicare Supplement. Your part A and B deductibles and coinsurance will be paid accordingly to the plan that you choose. Most popular is plan F that covers all Medicare deductibles and coinsurance on any medicare covered services.
- Help with managing out-of-pocket costs
- The freedom to choose any doctor who accepts Medicare patients (accepts consignment)
- No claim forms to file
- Very limited coverage outside of the United States
- Some of the plans offer additional benefits such as gym memberships, but not all
- Admission vs observation – this is becoming an issue for people who have original medicare or an Medicare Supplement. If you are in the hospital but the hospital has you listed as under observation (not as admitted) Medicare will not pay for you to go to rehab.
