Plan Comparison
- Medigap Plan A: Medicare Supplement Plan A offers basic benefits. It covers the coinsurance, hospice care coinsurance, and hospital costs for Medicare Part A. Medigap Plan A also covers the copayments, coinsurance, and the first three pints of blood during a blood transfusion under Medicare Part B.
- Medigap Plan B: Medicare Supplement Plan B covers the same benefits as Medigap Plan A, as well as the hospital costs, coinsurance costs, and deductibles for Medicare Part A.
- Medigap Plan C: Medigap Plan C covers all the out-of-pocket costs associated with Medicare Part A and Part B, including the Part B deductible. It also covers 80% of the charges for foreign travel emergencies, but only up to plan limits. However, Plan C does not cover Medicare Part B excess charges.
- Medigap Plan D: Medicare Supplement Plan D covers almost all the out-of-pocket expenses associated with Medicare Part A and Part B. The exception is the Part B deductible and excess charges. Medigap Plan D also covers 80% of the costs for foreign travel emergencies, but only up to plan limits.

- Medigap Plan G: Medicare Supplement Plan G covers most out-of-pocket costs left behind from Part A and Part B, except for the Part B deductible.
