Supplement Plans
Medicare is not designed to cover all your expenses. This helps fill in the gaps. Medicare Supplement plans help you pay for medical expenses not covered by Original Medicare, like deductibles, copays and coinsurance. Plus, a Medicare Supplement plan includes membership in our Silver Sneakers fitness program and Blue365 discount program. For an additional fee, it can cover dental and vision, too.
