MONEY SAVINGS TIPS FOR CONSUMERS
Savings Tip #1: The best way to save money on Medigap insurance is to make sure you compare costs. Ask the agent(s) you speak with this question. “How many insurance companies are you appointed with?” Appointed is an insurance industry term. It reflects how many insurance companies the agent can actually sell and earn a commission from. If the agent can’t earn a commission for selling a particular Medicare policy, chances are they will not be recommending it to you.
Savings Tip #2: Ask what discounts might be available. Many of the insurers offer a “household” discount when two people reside together. They can vary from 3% to as much as 14%. Different rules apply. Before you buy, it is smart to inquire if any discounts are available and how they work.
Savings Tip #3: Request a rate increase history for the company’s Medicare insurance policies. Companies can raise your Medicare insurance rate next year. A good agent will be able to share the company’s history of requesting rate increases. That’s not a guarantee that your rate will rise. But it’s valuable information that few consumers ever ask for.
