Medicare Supplement

Contact us to explain how Medicare works, how to sign up for Part B online and how to choose a Plan that works best for you.

Medicare – what is all that alphabet jargon?  Medicare has Parts A, B, C, and D.  Medicare Supplements are Plans A – N.

You can visit this site and apply for Part B of Medicare.  Part A is the hospital portion which is automatic and at no charge, starting the 1st of the month in which you turn 65.  Part B is for all medical providers, in or out of the hospital, labs, x-rays, etc.  This generally costs about $105 per month but could be more depending on your income.

In addition, you’d want a Medicare Supplement which runs about $140 for Plan F which is the best one – giving you almost 100% coverage for Medicare eligible expenses.  And, you’d want a Part D for your prescriptions.

Or, some people choose to go only with Part C which is a Medicare Advantage plan.  It is less expensive but more restrictive as to which providers you can see.
