Questions To Ask A Medigap Insurance Agent

Medicare insurance choices can be confusing.   The plan options can vary.  So can what you’ll pay.  And, Medigap insurance prices can vary from one Zip Code to the next.  That means the policy that your friend or relative living nearby has may not be available to you.

Working with a Medicare insurance professional can make things much easier.   Choose someone who will explain your options and help you pick a plan that’s best suited to your needs and, of course, your budget.

Some Medigap insurance professionals will do this all over the telephone and/or Internet.  Others will have you meet in their offices.  Some will come to see you in your own home.  Agents do not charge for this valuable assistance.  They earn a commission that is built into the Medigap insurance policy.  Commissions are priced into the policy and paid to the agent by the insurance company.

The following are some suggested questions to ask when interviewing agents:

DO YOU REPRESENT ONE MEDIGAP COMPANY?  Or, DO YOU REPRESENT MULTIPLE COMPANIES?  Here’s a suggested way to ask: “how many Medicare insurance companies are you appointed to sell?”  “Appointed” is industry jargon.  It means the agent can actually sell you a policy from that specific company.  Agents only earn a commission from companies they are appointed with.

ASK ABOUT THE HISTORY OF RATE INCREASES?  The lowest price for Medicare Supplement insurance may seem attractive.  But rates insurers charge you can change.  That’s why it is important to ask the agent or broker about the company’s recent record of rate increases.  A good agent will have no problem sharing this information (hint, that’s a good way to identify a good agent).

When you are ready to find Medigap insurance agents for your area use the Association’s FIND AN AGENT look-up.   Some consumers query several agents to evaluate their responses and willingness to help.  That is a perfectly fine way to start!  Thanks taking the time to visit our website and read this information.
