Quartz Medicare Supplement Plan
Coverage beyond Medicare
Quartz’s Medicare Supplement plan helps cover some of the extra charges not paid for by Original Medicare. Medicare provides medical coverage for people eligible for Part A and enrolled in Part B. However, Medicare pays only a portion of most medical bills. You’ll still have deductibles and coinsurance costs to cover.
With Medicare Supplement, you can:
- Go to any health care provider of your choice who accepts Medicare; Medicare Supplement does not require a provider network.
- Live outside of the state of Wisconsin for extended periods of time; the plan is available to anyone who is a resident of the state of Wisconsin on the date Medicare Supplement coverage is effective.
- To learn more or enroll, contact the Quartz Sales team at (866) 281-6942.
Quartz Medicare supplement eligibility and enrollment
You are eligible to enroll in Quartz’s Medicare Supplement plan if you are disabled or age 65 or older, enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B, and are a Wisconsin resident on the initial effective date of the policy. You cannot be covered by Medicaid (BadgerCare) or a Medicare Advantage plan and also have Quartz Medicare Supplement.
Open Enrollment Period
Effective Dates
Coverage with Quartz Medicare Supplement will begin the first of the month following the completion of an application unless a member requests a different date (as coverage can actually begin on any day of the month).
The effective date can also be delayed and begin up to three months following the date of the application if a member chooses.
To learn more or enroll, contact the Quartz Sales team at (866) 281-6942..
Special Enrollment Periods
This type of enrollment occurs when an individual loses other health insurance coverage. In this case, the individual will receive a notice from their prior insurance company indicating that they are eligible to sign up for a Medicare Supplement plan and that they are guaranteed coverage (the plan cannot turn down the applicant’s enrollment request based on health factors).
A copy of the notice is attached to the application, and both the application and notice must be received by Quartz no later than 63 days following the end of coverage.
Other Enrollment Periods
If an individual is enrolling outside of either an Open or Special Enrollment period, the application will be reviewed to determine whether the plan will accept the applicant based on health factors.

Have general Medicare Supplement questions? We can help.
Can Medicare Supplement increase member premiums?
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?
No. To learn more about Medicare Supplement enrollment periods, review above under the Eligibility and Enrollment section above.
Can a member get all Medicare Part B expenses covered by selecting the Part B Deductible Rider and the Part B Copay/Coinsurance Rider?
No. A member can only elect one Part B optional rider. This is mandated by the State of Wisconsin. However, note that the Part B Deductible Rider is only available for purchase by individuals who were eligible for Medicare before 1/1/2020.
How do I get an Outline of Coverage?
Here’s the Outline of Coverage for 2026. A Medicare Supplement health insurance advisor/agent can explain the Outline of Coverage document. You can also contact the Quartz Sales team at (866) 491-1335.
Does Medicare Supplement offer Part D prescription coverage?
No. Medicare Supplement does not offer prescription coverage. A Part D prescription plan must be purchased separately.
What if I want to terminate or make a change to my Medicare Supplement plan?
If you are a current Medicare Supplement member and want to make a change within the plan year, please contact your advisor/agent. They will work with you to complete the required forms.
Requests to terminate coverage need to be submitted in writing. You can submit a letter or print and complete the Medicare Supplement Rider Termination Form. Please send your request by email, mail or fax to:
