We are relocating to the Bellevue area and will be in need of Medicare Advantage Plan or Medigap Supplement Insurance right for us, is there anyone out there who has a Medigap Supplement Insurance they like and why?

Health Medicare Insurance is very confusing in trying to decide right plan from so many options.

Default Re:

Medicare Supplement PAYS AFTER Medicare. It pays 100% of "medically necessary" visits to the hospital or doctor. There is no network. But, premiums can cost $150 per month for each person. Plus, you would need a stand alone drug plan.....probably costing somewhere around $40 in monthly premium.

Medicare Advantage PAYS INSTEAD OF Medicare. It is network based. It is a "Pay As You Go" program where you share in the cost of your healthcare. The trade off is premiums can be as low as $0. But, it's lesser insurance coverage than with a Medicare Supplement (Plan F is one of the more popular plans).
