What is covered by Medicare Supplement Plans in Florida?
Medicare Supplement insurance plans, also known as Medigap plans, are private insurance plans that can help cover some of the out-of-pocket costs not covered by Original Medicare, such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medicare Supplement insurance plans are standardized by the federal government, which means that all plans of the same type must offer the same basic benefits.
