Anthem Medigap Policies

Anthem Medigap Polices are additional insurance that you can purchase if you have Medicare. These Anthem Medigap Policies and plans help you pay for some of the medical costs that Medicare Parts A and B do not cover and give you peace of mind.

We provide Anthem Medigap Policies to our customers. Keep in mind that Original Medicare often leaves copays, deductibles, and coinsurance behind for you to pay for various approved medical care as well as services.

 

What is Anthem Medigap?

A Medigap policy or plan is a private health insurance policy. Anthem Medigap policies can help you pay for many of the out-of-pocket costs that are often associated with traditional Medicare and, at times, some additional services as well. However, remember that you have to pay a premium for your Medigap insurance in addition to the Medicare Part D drug premium and Medicare Part B premium.

 

How to Choose an Anthem Medigap Policy

Did you know that Medigap policies are standardized? Also, keep in mind that each insurance company has to offer defined benefits for each plan.

Note that there is no difference in Medigap plans offered by different insurance companies and the federal government sets plan details.  Here is an important thing that you should remember. If you live in Minnesota, Massachusetts, or Wisconsin, you should check with a state insurance provider or a private insurer that operates in your state. This is because Anthem Medigap policies in these three states provide you with coverage different from the Medigap plans, followed by the remaining states.

Also, if you and your spouse would like Anthem Medigap coverage, you will have to purchase separate Medigap policies, as plans do not cover spouses together.

Also, the cost of Anthem Medigap policies will vary depending on your location, your overall health and, of course, the particular Medigap plan you choose. In every state, many insurance companies offer the same coverage under Medigap plans at a different price.

 

Anthem Medigap Plan N

Did you know that Medigap Plan N is one of the latest Medicare supplements on the market? This plan came about in 2010. Medigap Plan N provides the benefit of lower premiums as you will pay more of your cost sharing.

Note that under these Anthem Medigap policies, you will be responsible for paying your Part B deductible as well as any excess charges. Also, keep in mind that you will have copays at your doctor’s office as well as the emergency room, which is excellent. 

Anthem Medigap Plan N is an excellent choice for you if you want to pay as you go along to have a considerably lower monthly premium for your plan. And this is the reason many of our customers like this plan.

 

Anthem Medigap Plan F

We also provide Anthem Medigap Plan F. This plan provides you with the highest level of coverage that you can purchase from a supplemental insurance policy. Notably, this plan covers the excess charges from your Part B. And that is not all; Plan F also tends to be one of the most popular choices among our Medigap supplement customers. This is because it is probably the most comprehensive option for many people.  

However, because this plan is so robust, it also costs the most. So, if you need plenty of medical care, then Anthem Plan F offers excellent coverage for your out-of-pocket costs.

 

When to Enroll in Anthem Medigap

You may sign up for an Anthem Medigap plan during the 6 months after enrolling in Medicare Part B. Note that during that time, you may buy any Medigap policy by Anthem that is sold in the state you reside. And if you have some health conditions or problems, even then, you may be accepted, and insurance companies will not charge you more.
