Are you looking for a way to stretch your Medicare coverage?  Many seniors are now opting for an addition to the regular Medicare plan in the form of a Medigap supplement.  Medigap supplement plans are sold by private insurance companies and are designed to fill in the gaps in coverage provided by Medicare Parts A and B.  For retirees who are 65 and older who are already enrolled in Medicare Parts and B, signing up for a United Health Care Medigap Supplement Plan can help to greatly reduce a big portion of their health care costs.  Depending on which plan is chosen, patients often see thousands of dollars in coinsurance costs and copayments covered either completely or nearly completely by their Medigap plans.  Which is something that can be a huge help for those who are relying on their retirement fund for financial support.

United Health Care Medigap plans are designed to be easy to use and offer big benefits for seniors who need some extra coverage that covers them wherever they are in the US.  Medigap plans offer individuals the freedom to choose any doctor or type of specialist that accepts Medicare with no “out of network” fees and no claim forms to deal with.   The plans provide predictable, out of pocket costs and some plans will even cover part of or all of your Medicare deductibles.  Having this peace of mind built right into the plans can help to reduce worries about accidents or unexpected illnesses, as you don’t have to wonder about how the bills will be paid.

In addition to being flexible and affordable, United Health Care Medical plans provide guaranteed renewable coverage, as long as all premiums are paid on time and there are no application errors.  Extra services and benefits, such as pharmacy and vision discounts, are also often included in these plans, making them an important value for many seniors.
