Medigap Plan G is a popular choice among Medicare beneficiaries due to its comprehensive coverage. However, it’s crucial to understand its pros, cons, and how it fits into your overall Medicare plan.
The age when you become eligible for Medicare can be a bit confusing, especially if you mix it up with Social Security. Let’s clear that up right away: if you’re turning 65 and qualify for Medicare, it generally starts on the first day of the month you were born. But if you’ve qualified for Medicare before reaching 65 due to social security disability, your eligibility begins after receiving social security disability benefits for 24 months.
Medicare Supplement Plan G is a type of Medigap policy that helps pay for some of the costs that Original Medicare doesn’t cover.
Medigap Plan G is one of 10 Medicare Supplement Insurance plans. Medigap assists with fees such as coinsurance, copayments, and deductibles that aren’t covered under Medicare Part A and Part B, also known as Original Medicare.
There is no Medicare Part G, there is a Medicare Supplement Plan G, or Medigap, that fills the holes and pays for health services that regular Medicare does not.
