When comparing Medicare Supplements people assume the Medigap Plan F is the best plan because it provides the most comprehensive coverage. To a lot of people this would qualify a Medicare Supplement Plan F as the king of Medicare Plans. In this article today Medicare Insurance Finders will provide you with several facts to consider when comparing Medicare Supplements so that you can make the best decision.

Many people will consider looking at a Medigap Plan G over a Medigap Plan F due to several reasons:
- Plan G is not a guaranteed issue plan which means it will usually get lower rate increases than a Plan F. The people losing Group Coverage or MA coverage will not be able to qualify for a Plan G Medicare Supplement if they are unhealthy.
- The only difference in coverage between a Plan F and Plan G is the Part B deductible. This deductible is only $140 in 2012 and the Plan G will usually be approximately $200 or less a month meaning that it is cost efficient to go with the plan G.
- Example: Plan F costs $150 a month while the Plan G costs $120 a month. The plan G is $30 less per month or $360 a year but the only difference in coverage is a $140 deductible.
The Medicare Supplement Plan F is a great plan that you will be extremely pleased with. We have only experienced 3 claims issues in roughly 10 years when our clients had a Medicare Supplement Plan F and those three times it came down to a way that the doctor’s office had filed the claim. This is probably self explanatory why this Medigap Plan is the most popular plan on the market.
