High Deductible Plan F

If you’re willing to share some of the expenses of healthcare, Medicare Supplement Insurance High Deductible Plan F* may be a great choice. This plan is popular because it provides wide-ranging benefits with an affordable monthly premium.

The cost-sharing feature of this plan makes it possible to secure comprehensive benefits with a lower monthly premium. In fact, this plan provides the same benefits as traditional Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan F*. When you visit the doctor, receive hospital care, or travel and need emergency medical attention, you can get it, no questions asked.

Benefits

Medicare Supplement Insurance High Deductible Plan F provides total protection. Your Medicare Part A deductible ($1,600) and coinsurance are paid in full. That means after day 60 in the hospital (when Medicare benefits decrease) you’re covered. The plan pays for all remaining costs for days 61-90 ($400 a day) and days 91 and beyond ($800). In addition, the plan provides coverage for 100 percent of all Medicare allowable expenses for an additional 365 days of hospital care during your lifetime after Medicare benefits end and 100 percent of the costs for the first three pints of blood.

When it’s time to see your doctor, Medicare Supplement Insurance High Deductible Plan F pays your Medicare Part B deductible in full as well as your coinsurance and any excess charges Medicare will not pay. If you require skilled nursing care, your copayment is covered ($200 a day for days 21-100), as is your Medicare copayment/coinsurance for hospice care. Plus, if you travel, this plan covers 80 percent of any emergency care you receive while visiting a foreign country (after a $250 deductible and up to $50,000 in your lifetime).

* Plan F also has an option called a high-deductible Plan F. This high-deductible plan pays the same or offers the same benefits as Plan F after one has paid a calendar year $2,700 deductible. Benefits from high-deductible Plan F will not begin until out-of-pocket expenses are $2,700. Out-of-pocket expenses for this deductible are expenses that would ordinarily be paid by the policy. These expenses include the Medicare deductibles for Part A and Part B but do not include the plan’s separate foreign travel emergency deductible.

** Hospital benefits must be provided by facilities participating in Medicare. Payments are limited to the reasonable charge as determined by Medicare.

*** After 90 days of hospitalization, Medicare benefits are paid from a one-time lifetime reserve of 60 additional days (days 91-150) which are not renewable for each benefit period. See your Outline of Coverage for details and limitations of these benefits.

† After the $226 Part B deductible is met for Plans A, F, High Deductible Plan F, and Plan N.

†† Foreign Travel Emergency covered at 80% after the first $250 each is paid each calendar year; up to $ 50,000-lifetime maximum.
