New to Medicare? 3 Things to Know About Medigap Plans.
If you're new to Medicare, learning the ins and outs of the program can be confusing -- and downright exhausting even. But there's another program you may want to familiarize yourself with if you're new to Medicare -- Medigap.
Medigap plans are plans sold by private insurers that serve as supplemental insurance for those enrolled in Medicare. During your initial Medigap enrollment window, which is six-months starting the first month you have Medicare Part B and you're 65 or older, you cannot be denied Medigap coverage due to pre-existing conditions.
