How Do I Determine My Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan Needs in Connecticut?

Medicare Supplement Insurance plans, also called Medigap, serve to fill some of the gaps between what’s covered by Medicare Parts A and B and what isn’t, such as copayments, coinsurance and deductibles. Medicare Supplement Insurance plans in Connecticut assist with out-of-pocket healthcare costs and are available from private insurance companies throughout the state.

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 your Connecticut Medicare Supplement Insurance plan will not cover prescription drugs. However, you can buy an additional Medicare Prescription Drug plan to cover prescription drug costs. Another option is a Connecticut Medicare Advantage plan.

Connecticut residents cannot be enrolled in a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) Insurance plan and a Medicare Advantage plan at the same time. A Medigap Plan in Connecticut can’t be used to pay for any expenses for a Medicare Advantage plan.

When is the Connecticut Medicare Supplement Plan Enrollment Period?

Initial enrollment timeframes are very important. Enrollment for Medicare Supplement Insurance plans in Connecticut 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.

Connecticut residents have a six-month period around their birth month to buy a Medicare Supplement Insurance plan. Connecticut residents 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. Eligibility starts as soon as age 64 and 6 months, so get a head start if you can. During this important six-month period, companies that offer Medicare Supplement Insurance plans cannot use underwriting during this time. In other words, during this timeframe your acceptance is guaranteed. However, if you apply for Medicare Supplement Insurance outside of this six-month timeframe, Connecticut residents will be subject to a physical exam. If you apply for Medigap coverage after the first six 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.
