Medigap switch costs 67-year-old $385 a month while neighbor pays $165

Original: At 67, He Is Trying to Leave Advantage. The Medigap Insurer Said Yes, at $385 a Month. His Neighbor Pays $165 for the Same Plan G From the Same Company

A 67-year-old man trying to switch from Medicare Advantage to a Medigap Plan G was approved by his insurer, but quoted $385 a month. His neighbor pays $165 for the identical Plan G from the same company. The case highlights how widely Medigap pricing varies by age, location and underwriting, and why leaving Medicare Advantage can be costly for older beneficiaries.

Why now: Rising Medicare Advantage costs are pushing retirees to compare Medigap prices, and stories of steep price gaps resonate with people facing enrollment decisions.
