FAQs

What is Medigap in Nebraska?

Medigap is additional insurance that private carriers provide to reduce the expenses not covered by Original Medicare. These supplemental plans bridge coverage gaps but don’t include additional benefits like Medicare Advantage. In addition, Medigap plans don’t offer prescription drug coverage.

Medigap policy payments go directly to the carrier; each plan only covers individuals.

Which Medigap plan offers the most coverage in Nebraska?

The Nebraska Medicare Supplement plan offering the most coverage in the state is Plan F. This plan covers co-payments, co-insurance, extra charges, and more. It also covers the Part B deductible, which many other plans don’t cover.

There is a high-deductible Plan F option for Nebraskans that want Plan F’s benefits without the high monthly premium.

Can Medigap charge more for pre-existing conditions in Nebraska?

You have Guaranteed Issue Rights for Medigap policies. These protections prevent Medigap’s private carriers from charging you more for having a pre-existing condition, disability, or if you may have future health problems. You won’t pay extra for your health issues.

However, some plans handle pre-existing conditions differently than others.

Who qualifies for Medigap insurance in Nebraska?

Those qualifying for a Nebraska Medicare Supplement plan include those with Medicare Part A and B. You also must be 65 or older and live in the state where your plan applies.

While some states offer coverage for younger disabled people, Medigap in Nebraska does not apply to people with disabilities if they’re younger than 65. Additionally, you can’t have a Medicare Advantage plan and Medigap simultaneously.

When can you apply for Medigap in Nebraska?

You can apply for Medigap in Nebraska after you turn 65. It’s best to apply during your Open Enrollment Period when enrolling in Original Medicare.
