Medicare Supplement Plans for Louisiana

What a supplement does

Fill Gaps in Original Medicare

Medicare Supplement plans pay some or most of the deductibles, copays, and coinsurance that Parts A and B do not cover. With a supplement, you can see any provider in the United States who accepts Medicare without network referrals. Granen Insurance explains how Medigap works with Medicare and how it differs from Medicare Advantage so you choose the path that fits your health and budget.

Standardized plan letters

Medigap plans are standardized by letter, so a Plan G from any carrier has the same medical benefits. Plan G is popular for broad coverage that excludes only the Part B deductible. Plan N often costs less and adds small copays for office and ER visits. High-deductible versions may reduce premiums further. We shop multiple carriers in Metairie and Jefferson Parish for the best combination of price and stability.

Medigap vs Medicare Advantage

Supplements with Original Medicare offer broad access and more predictable costs in exchange for a monthly premium. Medicare Advantage may have lower premiums and extra perks but relies on networks and pay-as-you-go copays. If you prefer nationwide access for travel or split time between Louisiana and another state, Medigap can be a strong fit.

Enrollment timing and underwriting

our Medigap Open Enrollment Period starts when Part B begins and lasts six months. During this window you can enroll with no medical underwriting. After it ends, switching plans can require health questions unless you have a guaranteed issue right. We help you pair a supplement with Medicare Part D for prescriptions.
