What Are Medicare Supplement Insurance Plans in Arkansas?
It’s not quite the same as trying to jump the gap between the Arkansas River’s banks, but there are also gaps when it comes to Original Medicare coverage. This is why Medicare Supplement Insurance plans, also called Medigap, are offered in Arkansas. These plans compensate for some of the out-of-pocket costs not covered by Medicare Parts A and B, including copayments, coinsurance and deductibles.
You can find these plans through private insurance companies throughout the state of Arkansas. Arkansans have eight Medigap or Medicare Supplement plans to consider. These include basic benefits from Plans A, B, D, G, K, L, M and N. Medigap Plans C, E, F, H, I and J are no longer available to those who are newly eligible to Medicare, but enrollees in these plan letters have been grandfathered in.
As of January 1, 2020, Medicare Supplement Insurance plans no longer sell Medigap Plans C or F to newly eligible Medicare members. Anyone enrolled in a Medigap Plan C or F on or before December 31, 2019 has been grandfathered in and will be able to continue to use their plan as long as their premiums are paid.Residents of Arkansas looking for the most popular Medicare Supplement Insurance plans need to first look at their specific coverage needs to determine which of the Medigap Supplement plans they should consider.

Most Popular Medicare Supplement Insurance Plans in Arkansas
Government-approved Medicare Supplement Insurance plans help protect consumers in most states, including Arkansas. The statistics below show a sampling outlining the most popular Medigap plans Arkansas residents can select. Insurance companies that sell Medigap plans offer the same basic benefits, but those plans may come at different prices depending on the carrier. Each insurer may not offer each of the available Medigap Plans. As reported by America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), 211,879 Arkansas beneficiaries had Medigap coverage in 2021. Below is the breakdown of the number of Arkansas enrollees by Medigap plan type.
| Plan | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N |
| Enrollment # | 338 | 228 | 857 | 388 | 42 | 34,855 | 44,327 | 7 | 87 | 1,299 | 393 | 188 | 3 | 9,159 |
While a Medigap policy will help pay for things like copayments, coinsurance and deductibles not covered by Medicare Parts A and B, it is important to note that with a Medicare Supplement Insurance plan, you will not receive benefits for prescription drugs. However, you can buy an additional Medicare Prescription Drug plan to cover prescription drug costs or consider a Medicare Advantage plan.Learn more about your Medicare Supplement Insurance plan options in Arkansas by working with a SelectQuote licensed insurance agent.

Arkansas residents cannot be enrolled in a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) Insurance plan and a Medicare Advantage Plan at the same time. A Medigap Plan cannot be used to pay for any expenses for a Medicare Advantage plan.
When Can I Enroll in Arkansas Medicare Supplement Insurance Plans?
Initial enrollment timeframes are very important. Enrollment for Arkansas Medicare Supplement Insurance plans begins the first day of the month you turn at least 65 years old. You also must be enrolled in both Medicare Parts A and B in order to get a Medigap plan.
Arkansas residents have a six-month window around their birth month to buy a Medicare Supplement Insurance plan. Arkansans under the age of 65 can check with the Social Security Administration office for additional enrollment periods.The best time to enroll in a Medicare Supplement Insurance plan is during the initial six months you are eligible for Medicare. You might be surprised to hear enrollment can begin as early as age 64 ½ . During this important six-month period, companies that offer Medicare Supplement Insurance plans cannot use underwriting during this time. If you apply for Medicare Supplement Insurance outside of this timeframe, Arkansas residents will be subject to a physical exam. If you apply for Medigap coverage after the first months of eligibility, a company can refuse to sell you a plan or may adjust your premiums depending on your current health status and pre-existing health conditions. Therefore, it’s beneficial to enroll as soon as you’re eligible.
