i live in florida and have original medicare.
i had plan k supplement with aarp but this yr i turned 65 and went to plan f. it's their most comprehensive plan which i figured i needed because i'm having back surgery this yr. my out of pocket costs are so high, that's why i changed. even tho the plan is expensive i thought saving OOP expenses would off set it. hope that makes sense.

Doesn't AARP only give you referals to different kinds of insurance companys that they have programs or kick backs with and you choose which one you want and you still have to pay that companies regular fee and deductibles? My dh and I looked into that when he had AARP and that was our take on it.

i don't think so. aarp's medigap, or supplemental policies are thru united healthcare. within them they offer a number of policies each with different benefits and prices. you can pick the 1 that fits your own needs and price.
when i turned 65 that was open enrollment for me. the 1 plan i had (K) i was paying $176/mo and that went down to $75. only because i turned 65. you can always call. the counselors they have to talk you thru everything i found to be very helpful/knowledgeable.

I also live in Indiana. I don't know about a Medigap program but I am on a Medicare advantage. I'm not sure I know the difference.

An Advantage plan is technically Part C of Medicare which is a combination of Parts A & B and replaces traditional Medicare. Hope that helps clarify a bit for you. |
