Medicare Supplement—Get Covered
Medicare Supplement (MediGap) & More
Basic Medicare insurance leaves many gaps in terms of the costs you’ll incur with Medicare. Those “gaps” are where the term MediGap comes from. MediGap—also known as Medicare Supplement—offers additional coverage on top of standard Medicare insurance to help cover costs such as deductibles and other out-of-pocket expenses. Private insurance companies offer these additional coverages, which means they are competing for your business. Using ConsumerCoverage to help you compare rates will ensure you get the most for your money. Get covered!

- Delivered meals, homemaker services, or personal care.
- Intermittent or part-time occasional skilled nursing care or home health aide, physical, occupational or speech therapy and medical social services.
Patients who are expected to survive six months or less and whose focus is agreed (by the patient) to be palliative care only can receive coverage.
Benefit from coverage by Medicare Part B for outpatient cataract surgery. This coverage includes one pair of standard frame eyeglasses or contact lenses if needed after surgery.
This coverage is limited to chiropractic care if medically necessary and usually limited to only spinal alignments but not x-rays, massages, or other services like acupuncture.

Plan Info
Medicare Plan information
A plan offered by an insurance company that mirrors Medicare Parts A&B but can also offer additional services and coverage.
From October 15th through December 7th every year, Medicare eligible or Medicare enrollees are offered the opportunity to evaluate part of their Medicare coverage. This applies specifically to those individuals who have purchased Medicare Advantage, Part C or Part D from a private insurer. This period allows those individuals to compare plans and make changes for the coming year if they desire to.
Many plans are available right here that are stand-alone Part D prescription coverage or can be blended with another Medicare coverage policy.
Plans offered by insurance companies that offer payment for costs that are not covered by Medicare.
