Plan F also has high deductible options, which some companies may offer.  These high deductible plans pay the same benefits as Plan F and J after one has paid a calendar year $2000 deductible.  Benefits from high deductible Plans F will not begin until out-of-pocket expenses exceed $2000.

Plans K through N provide for different cost-sharing for items and services than Plans A through G.  With Plans K and L, once you reach your annual "out-of-pocket limit," the plan will then pay 100% of the Medicare co-payment, co-insurance and deductibles for the rest of the calendar year.  The out-of-pocket limit does not include charges for any provider that exceeds Medicare-approved amounts, known as "excess charges."  The annual out-f-pocket limits for these plans in 2010 are $4620 for Plan K, and $2310 for Plan L.

With Plan M you pay 50% of your Part A Deductible, as well as the entire Part B deductible ($155 in 2010). Plan N pays all of your Part A Deductible, and you pay the entire Part B deductible ($155 in 2010) plus a $20 copayment for office visits and a $50 copayment for Emergency Room visits.

After the Medicare Supplement plan is mailed or delivered, you have a 30-day free look to examine the plan and to decide if you want to keep it.  If you return the plan within 30 days, all of your money will be refunded.

Note:  Not all plans are available in all states.  Run an instant quote to see plans in your area, or contact us for your available options.
