How Does Medigap Work With Original Medicare?

Understanding your healthcare options in retirement is crucial, and Medigap can play a vital role. This video demystifies how Medigap plans integrate with your Original Medicare benefits, helping you navigate your coverage choices. Here's what you need to know about Medigap and Original Medicare: ► Medigap plans help cover out-of-pocket expenses like deductibles, co-payments, and co-insurance not paid by Original Medicare (Part A & B). ► These supplemental plans work by paying costs after Original Medicare has paid its share, acting as secondary insurance. ► You must be enrolled in Original Medicare Part A and Part B to purchase a Medigap policy. ► Medigap plans do not cover prescription drugs (Part D), vision, dental, hearing aids, or private-duty nursing. ► Understanding the different Medigap plan types (e.g., Plan F, G, N) and their specific benefits is key to choosing the right coverage. #Medigap, #MedicareSupplement, #OriginalMedicare, #Healthcare, #Seniors, #RetirementPlanning
