How is Medicare Changing in 2020?
Congress believes that by requiring all Medicare members to pay their part B deductible this will reduce medical overuse. Since Medigap Plans C and Medigap Plan F* are the only plans that cover the part B deductible, they will be the only plans affected by this change.
Who is Impacted by the 2020 Medigap Change?
New enrollees on or after 1/1/2020 will no longer have the option of Medigap Plan C or Medigap Plan F. All other plans currently available should still be available for purchase. Anyone enrolled in a Medigap Plan C or Medigap Plan F as of 12/31/2019 will be “grandfathered” and able to continue with their plan as long as want. So if you currently have a plan F you will be able to keep it.
