You can’t go wrong with a Bankers Fidelity Medigap Plan.
Bankers Fidelity does not offer their Medigap policies in AK, CA, CT, FL, MA, ME, MN, NH, NY, OR, RI, VT, WA or WI.
There are multiple Medigap plans you can choose to cover the gap between what original Medicare pays and what it does not.
It can be very beneficial if you speak with a Senior Benefits Agent to determine which plan is best for your needs and budget.
Some supplemental plans offer benefits that others do not, such as access to Silver Sneakers fitness programs or more generous out of network options.
Speak with a Senior Benefits expert to have your gap insurance custom-tailored for your lifestyle.
Senior Benefits has partnered with Bankers Fidelity, and together, they offer competitively priced Medicare Supplement Plans.
The following Medigap plans are currently the most popular that Bankers Fidelity offer:
For many years Medicare Supplement Plan F has been the most popular and offered the most comprehensive coverage.
Anyone who becomes eligible for Medicare after January 1, 2020, will not be able to enroll in Medigap Plan F (or Plan C).
If you were eligible for Medicare before January 1, 2020, you would still be able to enroll in Plan F or continue with coverage.
Only people who become eligible for MedSup Plan F after January 1, 2020, will not be eligible to enroll in Plan F (or Plan C).
The reason Plan F is so popular is because it covers all the cost gaps that original Medicare does not.
A Plan F monthly premium covers the costs of; Medicare Part A & B deductibles, Medicare Part B coinsurance, the first 3 pints of blood, and Part A hospice coinsurance.
Medicare Supplemental Insurance Plan F also includes skilled nursing care coinsurance, Part B doctors’ excess charges, and up to 80% of foreign travel emergency medical costs (with some policy limitations).
Many have speculated that the premiums will rise disproportionately to other plans because Plan F will soon no longer be available to new young 65-year-olds.
For this reason, discuss with a Senior Benefits Agent whether Plan F or a very similar Plan G may be right for you.
The only difference between Plan F vs. Plan G is that you have to pay your Medicare Part B deductible with Plan G.
All other coverages are the same, and most Plan G policies are a little bit cheaper for some reason.

Effective January 1, 2020, you will be able to purchase a new plan, called the High Deductible Plan G or HDG Plan.
This plan will offer the same coverage as Medicare Supplemental Plan G but, as the name implies, you will have to pay a high deductible before coverage kicks in.
According to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), the 2020 high deductible for plan G will be $2,180.
Speak to a Senior Benefits Medicare Supplement Expert today to find out if High Deductible Plan G makes sense for you.
Medicare supplemental insurance plan N makes a lot of sense for people looking for a less expensive premium, as compared to Plan F vs. Plan G.
With Plan N, you will be responsible for paying your Medicare Part B deductible, any doctors’ excess charges, and copays for doctors visits and trips to the emergency room.
MedSup covers these charges if you have plan F or G.
Plan N does not offer you as much coverage as compared to plans F and G and you need to plan to pay some of your medical bills out of pocket each year.
Be sure to speak with a Senior Benefits Agent before choosing Plan N because you don’t want to be surprised by medical bills.
| BENEFITS | PLAN N | PLAN F |

| Part A Hospital
Co-Insurance | YES | YES |
| 365 Hospital Reserve Days | YES | YES |
