South Carolina Medicare insurance agents advisorsSouth Carolina seniors turning 65 this year are advised to compare Medicare insurance policies as a way of saving money. Medigap costs, fees and available discounts across South Carolina for virtually identical insurance can vary dramatically according to the American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance (AAMSI).

“In Charleston a woman turning age 65 could pay as little as $104 each month or as much as $195 for basically identical Medicare Supplement coverage,” shares Jesse Slome, director of the national organization. “The small monthly difference adds up to well over $10,000 over a decade or longer. That’s why we strongly advocate comparison shopping.”

Slome explains that there are other benefits to comparing policy options and costs. “A few insurance companies add fees. Some make available discounts for two-person households. In South Carolina those discounts vary from zero to as high as 14 percent,” the national Medicare insurance expert reports.

The 2020 Price Index reports both the lowest and highest insurance rates for Plan G. “Medicare Plan G is the most popular choice among seniors turning 65,” Slome explains.  To see 2020 Medicare insurance pricing for top U.S. cities visit the American Association for Medicare Supplement Insurance’s website.
