Medicare Supplement Plans (Medigap)

Help covering the gaps in Original Medicare.

Medicare Supplement Insurance—also called Medigap—is designed to work alongside Original Medicare to help pay for costs that Medicare alone doesn’t fully cover. These costs might include hospital stays, coinsurance, or other out-of-pocket expenses, depending on the plan.



At BCI Insured, we help you compare Medigap options and decide whether a supplement plan is the right fit. As always, our guidance is independent, pressure-free, and completely free to you.

What Is a Medicare Supplement Plan?

Original Medicare (Parts A & B) offers solid coverage, but it doesn’t pay for everything. That’s where Medigap plans come in.



These optional policies are offered by private insurance companies and are standardized across most states. Each plan (like Plan G or Plan N) offers a specific set of benefits. You can use your Medigap policy anywhere Original Medicare is accepted—no networks required.

Example: Many people choose Medigap because they want predictable coverage and the freedom to see any doctor who accepts Medicare. We'll help you decide if that trade-off makes sense for your situation.

Timing Matters: When to Enroll in Medigap

The best time to enroll in a Medigap plan is during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period, which starts the month you’re 65 and enrolled in Medicare Part B. During this time, you have guaranteed issue rights—meaning you can’t be denied coverage based on your health.


After that window, enrollment may still be possible, but the process can include underwriting. We’ll help you navigate this and avoid surprises.
