UHC Branded Plan C Medicare Connecticut Supplement

Original Medicare covers many health care services as well as supplies. Although, there are many costs it doesn’t cover.  That is why we will explain some things about the UHC Branded Plan C Medicare Connecticut Supplement.  A Medicare Supplement policy is health insurance that private insurance companies are able to sell to clients.  In fact, clients use these policies to fill gaps in their Original Medicare coverage.  Medicare Supplement plan C is unique in Connecticut.  This is because it is one of three supplements in the state that people on Medicare under the age of 65 can enroll in.

Medigap policies like plan C help pay your share (coinsurance, copayments, or deductibles) of the costs of Medicare-covered services. Some Medigap policies cover certain costs not covered by Original Medicare.  Plan C is the most comprehensive plan that can be purchased by people under the age of 65.  Plan C covers all categories of benefits not fully covered by Original Medicare with the exception of Part B excess over 100%.

Medigap insurance companies

Insurance companies can only sell you a standardized Medigap policy identified by letters A through N. Each standardized Medigap policy must offer the same basic benefits, no matter which insurance company sells it. Cost is usually the only difference between Medigap policies sold by different insurance companies. Additionally,  AARP branded supplements through United Healthcare currently have the best rates for medicare supplement Plan C.

These supplemental plans can be a very important tool to fill your clients insurance coverage needs.  We want to make certain that our clients have all the coverage to protect both their healthcare needs as well as their budgets.  It is important for you as an agent to be knowledgeable about all the options for insurance that your clients have available to them.

AARP Plan N Supplement Connecticut Medicare

If you would like to learn more about AARP Plan N Supplement Connecticut Medicare, you should read this post.  AARP Medicare Supplements offered through United Healthcare currently have the lowest monthly premiums in Connecticut.   Medicare Supplements (also called Medigap) are standardized in Connecticut which means the benefits are uniform from company to company.  Plan N Supplement should be given consideration as an alternative to Plan F.   Plan N covers 100% of the part A deductible and coinsurance.  It will cover all but $20 of the Medicare Part B coinsurance.   The only other charge is a $50 charge for emergency room visits.

Plan N does not cover the part B deductible which is $144.00 one time per year.  It also does not cover part B excess over 100% and excludes coverage for foreign travel emergency.   The plan is still very solid and like all supplements, allows you to go to any doctor you choose as long as they accept Medicare.   The premium for plan N is $147.00 a month.  This cost should be compared to Plan F ($221.00 a month).  Often, the math will come out better on the plan N vs. the Plan F due to the premium savings.

United Health Care branded Plan L Supplement Medicare Connecticut

This post will give some information about the United Health Care branded Plan L Supplement Medicare Connecticut.  In fact, AARP Medicare Supplements offered through United Healthcare currently have the lowest monthly premiums in Connecticut.   Medicare Supplements (also called Medigap) are standardized in Connecticut which means the benefits are uniform from company to company.  Plan L covers 75% of the cost share that Medicare A and B does not cover.  This means that plan L will cover 75% of the inpatient hospital deductible from Part A of Medicare and 75% of the Part B co-insurance. (Medicare Part B has 20% coinsurance).

Plan L

Plan L does not cover the part B deductible which is $144.00 one time per year.  It also does not cover part B excess over 100% and excludes coverage for foreign travel emergency.   The plan is still very solid and like all supplements, allows you to go to any doctor you choose as long as they accept Medicare.   The premium for plan L is $114.00 a month.  This cost should be compared to Plan N ($147.00) a month and Plan F ($221.00 a month).  In many cases, the math will come out better on the plan L as compared to the F or N.  You will see this is the case when you factor in the premium savings.

Bottom line:  Once Plan L covers 75% of the part B coinsurance, it will leave very small charges for doctors visits in the $8 to $12 range.  An inpatient stay would cost more as Plan L will cover 75% of the Part A deductible leaving the insured with $304 to pay out of the total charge of $1,216.00.
