Anthem Medicare Supplement Plan N

Anthem Blue Cross Medicare SupplementThe Anthem Medicare Supplement Plan N has became one of Anthem’s most popular Medicare Supplement plans.

Anthem’s Medicare Supplement Plan N is a great alternative to Plan G, and for someone looking for a lower priced Medicare Supplement.  Plan N has all the benefits of a Medicare Supplement:  You can see any doctor, specialist or hospital in the U.S. who accepts Medicare, that’s nearly 95%. And Plan N provides very comprehensive medical benefits, including 100% coverage for hospitalization.

With Plan N the member will have an office visit copay of $20 and a $50 copay for emergency visits.  The member is responsible for the Part B annual deductible of $240.  The premium costs for this plan are around 30% less than Plan F.

The only time a Plan N does not make sense to enroll in is, if a person typically needs several outpatient visits per month.  Remember you are responsible for the $20 copay for all outpatient visits.  That includes; doctor visits, physical therapy, lab, X-ray, outpatient surgery, any visit or services not considered inpatient hospitalization.

Plan N Coverage:

  • Part A deductible ($1,632 every 60 day period)  Plan N pays this deductible.
  • Part B deductible ($240 annual deductible)  Plan N does not pay this deductible.
  • Plan N has a $20 office visit copay after Part B Deductible.
  • Hospice Benefit – Plan N, covered
  • Part B Excess Charges – not covered by Plan N

What is Medicare?  Medicare is health insurance for people 65 or older and for people younger than 65 with certain disabilities. Medicare was introduced in 1965 as a way for Americans to have more affordable access to health care after retirement.

Who is Eligible for Medicare?  You or your spouse worked for at least 10 years in Medicare-covered employment.  AND, you are 65 or older, or, you are under 65 and qualify for Medicare due to a disability.  AND, you are a citizen or permanent resident of the United States.

About Pre-Existing Conditions– If you have had at least six months of prior creditable coverage or are in a guaranteed issue situation, you don’t have to wait for coverage to start for a pre-existing condition.  Many types of health care coverage count as creditable coverage, but they only count if you did not have a bread for more than 63 days.

This prior coverage can be used to eliminate or shorten waiting periods for pre-existing conditions.  A pre-existing condition is a condition either treated or diagnosed six months prior to the effective date of your policy.
