Q: What is a Medicare Supplement plan?
A: A Medicare Supplement insurance plan helps cover the "gaps" in coverage that are left unpaid after Original Medicare pays its portion of your health care expenses.
Q: What should I consider when purchasing a Medicare Supplement Insurance Policy?
A: Be sure that you understand how it works with your original Medicare plan and how it can minimize your out of pocket expenses. For more information or to speak with a licensed agent, call us at 1-888-831-8541 and we'll help you find the right plan.
Q: Why should someone buy Medicare Supplement Insurance?
A: There are out-of-pocket costs not covered by Medicare and a Medicare Supplement Insurance policy may fill these gaps.
Q: Does it cost me anything to work with Your Senior Insurance Solutions?
A: No. The insurance carrier you select will compensate Your Senior Insurance Solutions for servicing you. You are NOT charged an increase in premium for working with an agent.
Q: Will a Medicare Supplement cost less if I purchase it with an insurance company instead of Your Senior Insurance Solutions?
A: No. Medicare supplements are regulated by the federal government. Because of this your rates will be same for the same plan whether your purchase it through us or the insurance carrier. HOWEVER, although Medicare Supplement BENEFITS are regulated by Fed government, RATES can VARY SIGNIFICANTLY BETWEEN COMPANIES. So give us a call at 1-888-831-8541. We pride ourselves on being knowledgeable, and we will help you sort through your options
Q: Can I keep my current doctor?
A: As long as your doctor is Medicare provider you should be able to keep seeing them because Medicare supplement insurance companies do not have networks.
Q: Do I need more than one Medicare Supplement policy?
A: No. It is illegal for insurance companies to sell you more than one policy.
Q: Will a Medicare Supplement plan cover me if I have a preexisting condition?
A: Possibly. Insurance companies will usually ask for proof of prior coverage before offering coverage for conditions. However, there are some instances where this is not necessary to provide coverage for pre-existing conditions. Give us a call at 1-888-831-8541 so we can help you find coverage to cover your health conditions.
Q: What can I do if I'm declined for a Medicare Supplement Plan?
A: No two insurance companies have the same underwriting standards. So, if you are declined we can simply review your application and submit it to a different insurance company. At Your Senior Insurance Solutions we pay attention to detail and try to do it right the first time to avoid this situation.
Q: Can my Medicare supplement insurance be terminated for any reason?
A: No. The Federal Government provides protection against this happening. However, an insurance company can terminate your coverage if you fail to pay your premiums, if there are any omissions or misrepresentations on your application, or if the insurance company becomes insolvent.
Q: How long must I keep my Medicare Supplement plan before canceling?
A: Medicare supplement insurance companies are a month-to-month contract. So you may cancel at anytime.
