Medigap Premiums By State Reported by Medicare Supplement Insurance Association

Medigap Premiums 2022 Report

The lowest and highest Medigap Plan G cost for all 50 states has just been reported by the American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance.

“Some 14 million Americans own Medicare Supplement insurance also commonly called Medigap,” states Jesse Slome, director of the Medicare advocacy organization.  “While Medicare mandates uniformity in policy coverage, each insurer decides what they want to charge.  And, there is a wide spread between the lowest and highest cost.”

The Association’s analysis examined pricing for an age-65 female applicant who was just enrolling into Medicare.  “We selected Plan G because that is the most popular choice among those signing up for Medicare for the first time,” Slome acknowledged.  “In some places there are only a few available options to compare.  However, in many places a consumer has as many as 20 different insurance companies offering a Medigap Plan G plan.”

According to the Association’s report, the lowest monthly cost found was for Terrace Park, Ohio.  “A 65-year-old woman could get covered for as little as $78.21 a month,” Slome shares.  Compare that to Greenwich Connecticut where the lowest cost was $206.00-per-month and the highest available cost was $428.72.

“Price is definitely a factor but it’s not the only thing we advise consumers to ask about,” Slome advises.  “Insurance companies can raise rates and finding out the company’s history of rate increases can be very important when choosing a plan for the first time.  That’s where a knowledgeable local Medicare insurance agent can be your most important call.”  Access the 2022 Medigap Premiums By State report on the organization’s website.
