About Medicare Supplement Plans

The goal of MedicareSupplementsForYou.com is to help you navigate through the plans and prices of Kansas Medicare Supplements (or Medigap). As experts in our industry, we’re aware that unlike Medicare, Medicare Supplemental Insurance is only offered by private insurance companies who set their own monthly premiums. Before you buy supplemental Medicare insurance in Kansas, we help you to consider how much the plans cost now, and how much they might cost in the future. There are 3 ways that a company can choose to base their charges:

1. Community-rated: No matter how old you are, the policy costs the same. Premiums may go up due to inflation or other factors, but not due to age.
2. Issue-age-rated: The charges are related to your age at the time of purchase – which means when you buy your policy, you will be charged the same amount as others in your community who are the same age.
3. Attained-age-rated: The charges automatically go up in price as you age.

After realizing how a company bases their charges, MedicareSupplementsForYou.com will then help you compare your Kansas Medicare Supplements options. You’ll soon find that a Medicare Supplement plan at one company, will be unique prices at other companies. Insurance companies may charge whatever they decide, and it’s important for a senior to know the costs of plans at many companies, so that he/she buys the most price-agreeable plan. The costs of Kansas Medicare Supplements may depend on whether your insurance company does the following:

1. Offers discounts (such as for non-smokers; married people who buy 2 policies; paying your premiums using electronic funds transfer, etc.).
2. Sells Medicare SELECT policies. Medicare SELECT is a type of Medigap policy that is sold in some states and may require you to use hospitals and, in some cases, doctors within its network. If you buy this type of Medigap policy, your premium may be less.
3. Offers a “high-deductible option” for Medigap Plans.
