Medicare Bob does not recommend you keep Plan F, and here’s why: with no one new coming into Medicare Supplement Plan F, it’s going to become an aging block of business. In other words, only older individuals past the age of 65 will be able to get it. As a result, none of the new Medicare enrollees can join the plan, and the older seniors who have it make more claims. Consequently, supplement insurance companies must charge higher premiums to cover the increased costs.
Who Can Keep Plan F?
Only Medicare beneficiaries who had Medigap Plan F on or before January 1, 2020, can keep it. However, if you did not have Plan F on or before January 1, 2020, it is not available to you. Please consider shopping for a more affordable Medigap plan, such as Plan G.
When you purchase Medigap Plan G during your initial open enrollment, you do not have to qualify medically. However, if you switch Medigap Plans, you will need to pass medical underwriting.
