There are people that can help with finding the best plan for you. The problem with finding that person. Is so many a pedaling Advantage plans are paid a commission for selling you one. Best to ask around for recommendations for others.BC/BS supplement? Had to look that one up! At those prices, Ron, my health insurance premium would almost double. If I understand correctly, that was for a MediGap policy that covers the 20% of the bill that Medicare doesn't pick up, right? I'm waiting on an MRI bill, too, and I'll be paying the 20% because it's still early in the year and I haven't met my maximum out-of-pocket limit yet. I'll be on Medicare next year, so I've got that long to come up to speed on how it works and what supplemental plans make sense. Where's a good place to start?

Don, where are you?
There are people that can help with finding the best plan for you. The problem with finding that person. Is so many a pedaling Advantage plans are paid a commission for selling you one. Best to ask around for recommendations for others.
There are some Advantage plans that are good.
What is the difference.
Advantage plans take over all the billing from Medicare and are not as standardized like Supplemental.
Supplemental pays Medicare 80% of the bill. Your supplemental insurance pays the rest. Plan F covers the most. There is also a high deductible F plan. Every state has a different cost. So you need to search out your state and county. There is also plans from A to N.
You should do all your research and sign up at least 3 months before you turn 65. You will also need prescription D if you choose a supplemental.
There is a penalty for not signing up within a given time.
Every person needs are different. If you have lots of Dr visits and test then F May be a good choice. Many plans have $25 Dr copays and $45 for specialists and other deductibles. My plan has none. Plus I do not need a referral to see any Dr.
BEF hope you throw that cold soon
Loaded everything up. Tractor sure came in handy
