When you’re retired, managing expenses takes on a new level of importance, particularly medical expenses. Even with Medicare coverage, an unexpected health event can put your savings at risk. A Medicare Supplement Insurance policy from SGIC offers financial security and peace of mind – it helps you pay out-of-pocket costs for Medicare-approved services and works hand-in-hand with Medicare to provide more insurance coverage.
PLAN FEATURES:
- Choose the plan with the benefits, premium, and out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., copays and coinsurance) that best fits your health care and financial needs
- No restrictive networks – go direct to your preferred health care providers, including specialists and specialty hospitals
- Benefits stay the same year after year – plans are standardized and conform to exact benefits and features required by both federal and state government
- Guaranteed renewable with no worries of reduced benefits or cancelled coverage for the life of the policy, as long as premiums are paid on time
WHO IT'S FOR:
- People who are 65 or older and enrolled in Medicare Part B
- In some states, people under age 65 with a disability and/or end-stage renal disease (plan offerings and eligibility vary by state)
WHAT’S COVERED:
SGIC offers Medicare Supplement Plans A, B (in some states as required by law), F, G, and N. Plan A provides basic benefits, while plans B, F, G, and N offer more comprehensive coverage with benefits and features designed to meet different needs. Premiums vary according to the amount of coverage provided by a specific plan, as well as by age and where you live.
