What Will a Medicare Supplement Plan Cost? 

The federal government decides how Medicare supplement, also known as Medigap, plans are structured. They pretty much stay the same from company to company. However, the cost of a Medicare supplement plan is determined by the health insurance company selling the plan, so prices may vary from year to year. 

We consider factors like age, gender, location and health habits when calculating your premium at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.

Your premium goes up as you get older. Depending on the health insurance carrier, your premium may also be different based on your location within Michigan.

The prices you'll see are estimates and won't include taxes. They'll give you a good idea of what your monthly bill will be to start.

Guaranteed issue right

When looking up the cost of Medicare supplement plans, you need to know if you qualify for a guaranteed issue right. Knowing if you're eligible for a guaranteed issue right is important. It can affect what you pay for your plan and whether you can be turned down for coverage.
