Offering all the Most Popular Medicare Supplements

There are a total of 11 Texas Medicare Supplement Insurance Plans approved by CMS and the federal government to offer consumers and Blue Cross Blue Shield offers 7 of them, all with the most popular benefit options. The most popular of all the Texas Medicare Insurance plans is and always has been Plan F offering seniors with full and complete coverage for the Medicare Part A hospital deductible and coinsurance as well as the Part B deductible and any excess charges. This Plan is the most complete and comprehensive of all the plans approved by the government. New this year is a high deductible Plan F with extremely low rates, however due to the $2000 calendar year deductible most seniors on a fixed income feel more secure with less exposure out of pocket.

Plan K and L are more low cost options requiring consumers to assume more of the cost for medical treatment in return for a lower premium. Plan N, which is also new this year covers basic benefits like doctor visits after you have paid up to a $20 copay and up to $50 for an emergency room visit. Plan G looks very much like the ever popular Plan F except it requires you to pay the Part B deductible which for 2011 is $162 a year. Lastly is the basic Plan A which is also offered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas. This plan is most often purchased by consumers under 65 that find themselves on under age Medicare due to a disability.

Money Saving Medicare Select Plans

Plan F, Plan G, Plan K, Plan L and Plan N also offer what’s called a Medicare Select option which provides the same benefits as their “standard” plans but cost considerably less. The savings is because you agree to use any of their Medicare Select Network Hospitals for all non emergency admissions. Not using one of these providers will result in reduced benefits so we suggest checking with us to confirm adequate hospitals are in your area.
