Maryland Medicare Options

Supplement Gap Plans

Medicare doesn't cover all of your medical expenses. In fact, you're liable for up to 20% of all your medical bills. Filling in this "gap" with supplemental coverage is a fast and easy way to avoid unexpected costs. 

Medicare Supplement plans help pay for the expenses that original Medicare does not. You pay a fixed monthly premium and the insurance company covers most of your Medicare bills. 

With over 25 companies to choose from, and rates starting as low as $0 per month, Supplement plans are not only affordable, but very flexible. There are no networks to worry about, no referrals required and no yearly contracts. 

Here are some basic non-smoker rates for someone age 65 living in Maryland:

PLAN G

Annual Deductible: $226/yr

Female - $130/mo

Male - $140/mo

HIGH DEDUCTIBLE PLAN G

Annual Deductible: $2,700/yr

Female - $37/mo

Male - $40/mo

Advantage Plans (Pt C)

A popular alternative to Original Medicare is a Medicare Advantage Plan. Maryland has HMO and PPO  plans available in most counties and an MSA plan in every county.

Advantage Part C plans work similar to what you're probably used to with your workplace insurance, a small monthly premium with co-payments, share-of-cost and a network of providers to select from.

The benefit to Advantage plans is that they usually come packed with options not available with Supplement plans. These may include dental, vision benefits like money allocated for glasses, access to gyms, chiropractic or routine podiatry services.

Additionally, there are never any network restrictions for urgent care or ER visits nationwide, so you can get immediate care when you need it most.

Examples of monthly premiums:

HMO - Starting at $0/mo

PPO - Starting at $0/mo

MSA - $0/mo

Low-income eligible plans available

Prescription Drug Plans (Pt D)

I can handle your Medicare drug plan as well. Most brokers simply don't offer these plans because they're complicated, they take a lot of time to research and the broker compensation is very low.

In Maryland, there are more than 22 different Rx Plans designed to fit your needs, and it's my job to figure out which plan will save you the most money and give you the coverage you need.

Skipping out on Rx coverage can result in penalties later down the road when you finally need coverage, so delaying coverage isn't a good idea, even if you don't take any medications right now.

Every plan offers retail pharmacy and mail order options for easy refills and convenience of use. 

There are many complex rules surrounding how Medicare Rx plans work, so it's best to speak with me directly for advice.

Plans start at under $15/mo and 90% of my clients spend less than $20 per month for coverage. 

Low-income eligible plans available.
