Best Medicare Supplement Carriers to contract with.

Best Medicare Supplement Carriers to contract with.
Medicare Supplement plans or Medigap Plans are standardized. This means that the benefits are regulated, so each and every plan, no matter what insurance company you get it from, will have the same exact benefits.

When you are looking for carriers, here is what I think you should focus on when you are doing your research:

1. Price. Different companies are going to charge different premiums for the same plans. Pricing can vary based on area.
2. The company’s financial stability and rate increase history. Generally, you want a company that has at least a B or B + financial rating, and a company that has been around for a while. Its also a good idea to see a company that offers many different lines of coverage (like life insurance, dental/vision insurance).
