In some states, you may be able to buy another type of Medigap policy called Medicare SELECT. It’s a Medigap policy that requires you to use specific hospitals and, in some cases, specific doctors to get full benefits.
A Medicare SELECT plan pays the Medicare Part A inpatient deductible when you use a network hospital or if you use a non-network hospital for emergency care. Otherwise, you pay the inpatient deductible.
The following chart provides a checklist of benefits by each plan so you can compare (not all plans may be available in your state). All plans include these basic benefits:
- Medicare Part A hospital coinsurance
- Medicare Part A extended hospital coverage (365 days after Medicare benefits end)
- Medicare Part A hospice outpatient prescription drug co-payment and inpatient respite care coinsurance
- Medicare Part B coinsurance*
- Medicare Parts A and B first three pints of blood
