Medicare Supplement Plan M
Medicare Supplement Plan M is one of the standardized Medicare Supplements plans available in 47 states of the United States. This means that the Medigap Plan M that’s offered in one state provides the same coverage as the Medigap Plan M that’s offered in another state, regardless of the carrier. However, if you’re live in except in Massachusetts, Minnesota, or Wisconsin, you will have to buy a different plan as they do not offer Medicare Supplement Plan M.
Medicare Supplement Plan M offers basic coverage plus a few extras. It is very similar to Medicare Supplement Plan D, one of the more comprehensive plans. The difference, however, is that while Plan D covers 100% of the Medicare Part A deductible, Plan M covers only 50%. In 2023, Medicare Part A deductible is $1,600. So, if you have plan M, the plan will be responsible for $800, while you pay the remaining $800.

-
Medicare Part A coinsurance and hospital costs up to an additional 365 days after Medicare benefits are used up

Plan M is known for having moderate monthly premiums. However, Plan G and Plan N are still usually the best value options for people who are looking for a Medigap Plan.
