Medigap Enrollment Steps: #4 Get Your Medigap Plan Quotes

Now that you know what Medigap is, what is behind the premium you will pay and how it is calculated it is time to get some Medigap Insurance quotes. This is not hard to do as these plans are offered by the private insurance companies that are waiting in line to give you a Medigap quote. However, it is very important that you are aware of what you are doing when you get your Medigap quotes.

First, it is important that you remember when getting quotes to prepare apples to apples instead of apples to oranges. Make sure the company you are getting a quote from is offering the same services to you that the other companies are offering. You don’t want to make the mistake of saving money at the expense of getting the right coverage options.

Last, you need to make sure that your Medigap quotes are binding, as in they are not numbers that will change drastically when you agree to a plan. Make sure that your costs in one plan are comparable to another because if it seems too good to be true, it is. Once you have gotten the quotes that you feel are necessary you will be ready to move into the final phase of getting a Medigap policy.
