• IS MEDICARE SUPPLEMENT PLAN F GOING AWAY

2

• There is a lot of talk about Medicare Supplement
  Plan F being eliminated. We asked Allen Heffler,
  President of MyMedicareAdvisor a set of question
  to hopefully clear up this issue and to separate
  fact from fiction.
• Question 1- What happens to people who
  currently own a Medicare Supplement Plan F?
• Heffler- "For those Medicare Beneficiaries who
  currently are on a Medigap Plan F, they can keep
  it for as long as choose to. They will not be
  forced to make any changes.

• Question 2- Can someone buy a Medicare
  Supplement Plan F today?
• Heffler- "Yes! Anyone eligible for Medicare Part
  A before January 1, 2020 can enroll in Plan F and
  keep it for as long as like.
• Question 3- Is Plan F going away?
• Heffler- " No it isn't going away"

• Question 4- If I am going onto Medicare after
  2020. what plan is similar to Plan F?
• Heffler- "Medicare Supplement Plan G would be a
  great option. It is almost identical to Medigap
  Plan F, with only one small exception. Medigap
  Plan F covers the Part B annual deductible (in
  2017-183). Medigap Plan G- you have to pay that
  Part B deductible. Other than that, the plans are
  exactly the same."

• Question 5- So, what exactly is all the talk
  about Plan F then?
• Heffler- "For anyone who becomes eligible for
  Medicare Part A AFTER January 1, 2020, Medicare
  Supplement Plan F will NOT be available.
• Question 6- Why is Medicare doing this?
• Heffler- "Every ten years or so, Medicare makes
  changes to their plans. With increased costs,
  Congress decided that they want to eliminate
  first dollar plans

• plans and to have Medicare benefiaries to have
  more skin in the game. Rightly or wrongly, it has
  been argued that beneficiaries see doctors more
  often with first dollar plans. Thus, they wanted
  to eliminate those plans that offer full
  coverage."
• Allen Heffler states "We realize that all of this
  can be quite confusing. You can go it alone and
  try to make sense of it all. Or you can make one
  phone call to us at [phone]. We will
  answer your questions clearly and concisely and
