什麼是Medicare補充計劃或Medigap?




Medicare Parts A and B provide insurance coverage for health-related expenses, but they don’t cover all of the health care costs you may have. A Medicare Supplement plan, sometimes called “Medigap,” is a private insurance policy that can help pay for some of the health care costs that Medicare doesn’t cover. This can include out-of-pocket expenses such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles.

Medicare A和B部分為與健康相關的費用提供保險,但它們並不涵蓋您可能擁有的所有醫療保健費用。 Medicare 補充計劃(有時也稱為“ Medigap”)是一項私人保險政策,可以幫助支付Medicare不能涵蓋的某些醫療保健費用。這可以包括自付費用,例如共付額,共同保險和自付額。


With health care and out-of-pocket costs for Medicare participants on the rise, a Medicare Supplement plan can help set your mind at ease.
