Can Medicare Supplement increase member premiums?
Answer:
Yes. Medicare Supplement policy premiums can increase each year on the renewal date of the plan, on the birthday of the member, or if the member moves into a new rating area. Otherwise, premiums can only be raised if they are also raised for all similar policies in the state. Medicare Supplement chooses not to increase premiums on birthdays.
Is Medicare Supplement Open Enrollment the same as Medicare?
Answer:
No. To learn more about Medicare Supplement enrollment periods, review the Eligibility and Enrollment section.
Can a member get all Medicare Part B expenses covered by selecting the Part B Deductible Rider and the Part B Copay/Coinsurance Rider?
