What Medicare Supplement Company Is Best?

With all the different plans and carriers it can be overwhelming trying to decide on which route to go for your Medigap insurance. Medicare alone is confusing enough, once you add in 50 different carriers and pricing things just get more confusing.

To help makes things clearer I have reviewed some of the top carriers that offer Medicare supplement insurance and rated them based on the most important factors;

Competitive Rates
Rate Stability
Customer Service
Claims

Competitive Rates and Stability

When comparing Medicare supplement plans and carriers it is very important to compare rates when looking at the same plan letter between companies. For example, if you are comparing Plan G between companies you want to focus on price along with several other factors.

Once you have you established the carrier with the best price, next you want to make sure that carrier has a stable history of rate increases. This is very important because you may not be able to change your plan in the future if you are not healthy enough to do so. If the carrier you choose a very high rate increases then you will be stuck overpaying for your coverage.

Carriers that have shown a history of conservative rate increases are the ones we like to recommend the most. We strongly prefer to have a lot of happy clients that remain with us for the long term than a bunch of unhappy clients who leave after their first or second rate increase.

Customer Service

Another important factor when deciding what company to choose is the quality of their customer service. Most companies have a great customer service department. There are a few carriers out there who are hard to work with so we prefer not to recommend them. Overall, most carriers are quite friendly and easy to work with.

Claims Handling

Of course, you want a carrier who will pay the bills right? Luckily, all Medigap carriers are required to pay once the claim has been approved by Medicare. In addition, most carriers are set up to pay electronically directly to the provider, so you don’t have to worry about any paperwork.
