Medicare Supplement Plan C Benefits

While most Medigap plans cover the most common deductibles, copays, and coinsurance charges, Medicare Supplement Plan C goes beyond this coverage to extend into less common charges.

The exact coverage of Medicare Supplement Plan C is as follows:

• Medicare Part A Coinsurance and Hospital Costs (up to 365 additional days beyond typical Medicare Benefits)
• Medicare Part B Coinsurance and Copayment
• First 3 Pints of Blood
• Coinsurance for Hospice Care Under Medicare Part A
• Coinsurance for Skilled Nursing Facilities
• Medicare Part A Deductible
• Medicare Part B Deductible
• Foreign Travel Emergency

What Medigap Plan C Doesn’t Cover

Beyond Plan F, Medicare Supplement Plan C is the most comprehensive option available. The only benefit not included that you can receive from other supplemental insurance is coverage for Medicare Part B Excess Charges.

This coverage is important for those who have primary care physicians or specialists who charge above Medicare’s assigned fees. Doctors in most states are permitted to charge up to 15% more than the assigned fee, which you would have to make up out of pocket if you do not have this coverage, which is provided by Medigap Plans F and G

Who Is Medicare Supplement Plan C Best For?

Because it covers almost everything, Medigap Plan C is ideal for those people who want the maximum amount of peace of mind, so long as they don’t mind the chance of paying extra if their doctors happen to charge above Medicare’s suggested prices.

You can always ask your care providers ahead of time if they “accept assignment” in order to make sure that they don’t charge extra.
