Ooops, on edit I'm not on Medicare yet, but was told it'll be the same as I pay now when we go on Medicare in 10 months.

2. Will there be a deductible with your insurance?
Any restrictions, or will the supplemental cover the full 20% not covered by medicare and will you have to go to "in area" hospitals?

3. Ours is through where my hub used to work. Only $99 a month for each of us because it is a group
plan. I just had surgery. It picked up everything that Medicare did not cover. Our biggest expense is the Medicare D drug coverage plans plus what we have to co-pay plus my hub always goes in the doughnut hole by September.

5. $106.00 a month for each of us.
It's a PPO plan that includes Medicare Part D. We have to use a provider who is on the list but there are no referrals. Copay is $15 for office visits. Generic med copay is $5.00.
