What is Medigap Plan N?
Medigap Plan N is similar to Plan D, with differences in how it covers Part B expenses. Specifically, Plan N pays 100% of your Part B coinsurance, but you have a $20 copay for some office visits. In addition, you have a co-pay of up to $50 for emergency room visits that do not result in an inpatient admission.
Medicare supplement Plan N has 100% coverage for the Medicare Part A deductible but no coverage for the Medicare Part B deductible. Plan N does cover the basic core benefits, which include complete coverage for Part A inpatient hospital coinsurance, the total expense for inpatient hospital care for 365 days after Medicare benefits run out, blood services (initial three pints), coinsurance expenses for Medicare Part B, Part A hospice coinsurance, and the emergency benefits for travelling abroad, up to 80%. All of the Medicare supplement plans include some level of hospice care.
Plan N may be a good option if your goal is lowering out-of-pocket responsibilities. Not all insurance carriers offer all of the Medicare Supplement Plans. It can also be difficult to determine which plan is the right fit for you.
