Follow on Google News | Medicare Supplement Insurance Trade Group To Offer Consumer ComparisonsA new effort will connect consumers considering Medicare Supplement Insurance with dedicated specialists in Medigap policies according to the American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance.
“Medicare Supplement insurance http://www.medicaresupp.org can be confusing for consumers who are increasingly calling seeking answers,” explains Jesse Slome, executive director of the national organization. “With 10,000 Baby Boomers turning 65 every day we are seeing an increase in the number of calls from across the country." To assist consumers seeking both information and price comparisons for Medicare Supplement insurance policies, the trade group initiated a Consumer Inquiry Center. "We will start to address basic questions through our organization's website and, if there is interest, connect the consumer with an insurance professional familiar with the policies available in their locality," Slome notes. There are 12 standardized Medicare Supplemental insurance plans - A through L. Medicare Supplement is often also called Medigap. Each plan has different benefits. Plan A has the fewest and is the least expensive, according to AAMSI. Plan J has the most and is the most expensive. "It is important to note that all 12 Medicare Supplemental insurance plans are not available in every state," Slome explains. "Massachusetts, Minnesota and Wisconsin have their own plans, each with different names," he notes. But the state-specific plan benefits are similar to the "national" plans. The American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance and the American Association for Long Term Care Insurance http://www.aaltci.org were established to advocate for the importance of planning and to support insurance and financial professionals who market Medigap insurance.
