Arizona Medigap enrollment & coverage chart per letter plan

Medigap coverage in Arizona is a primary source of supplemental Medicare coverage. This is because it protects beneficiaries from high out-of-pocket medical costs. That’s why nearly 185,000 Arizona residents enrolled in one of the ten Medicare Supplement plans.

The chart below shows the number of beneficiaries in Arizona that enrolled in each letter plan:

PLAN A B C D F G K L M N
AR 488 373 1,393 357 36,741 16,584 490 277 3 7,293

As you can see from above, Medigap Plan F and Plan G are Arizona’s most popular Medigap plans, with Plan N being the runner-up. Plan N seems to provide a lower cost balance in premiums in exchange for a small copay when visiting the doctor or going to the emergency room.
