Learn what the Congressional change means for your Medigap plan.

How is Medicare Changing in 2020?

Congress believes that by requiring all Medicare members to pay their part B deductible this will reduce medical overuse. Since Medigap Plans C and Medigap Plan F* are the only plans that cover the part B deductible, they will be the only plans affected by this change.

Who is Impacted by the 2020 Medigap Change?

New enrollees on or after 1/1/2020 will no longer have the option of Medigap Plan C or Medigap Plan F. All other plans currently available should still be available for purchase. Anyone enrolled in a Medigap Plan C or Medigap Plan F as of 12/31/2019 will be “grandfathered” and able to continue with their plan as long as want. So if you currently have a plan F you will be able to keep it.

Which Medigap Plan Should You Choose?

We recommend that you select the best plan based on your:

1) Budget
2) Unique health needs
3) State specific laws.

*Please Note: Medigap Plan F includes Medigap Plan F High Deductible
