Depending on the market, a med supp premium is just too high...like Broward county FL, T65 is about $260/mo for Plan F from UHC or FL Blue plus $104.90 + Drug Plan and your close to $400/mo...
yep - I am in Plam Beach county, same rates.
What boggles my mind is that some insurance administrator decided that Florida should be a price "As Issued" state instead of by age. They were probably thinking it would save seniors money. However, insurance companies then charge the 65 year old the same rate as an 80 year old gets in other states! If the powers that be in Florida thought this would be good for seniors, they didn't run the numbers.
Or....they are trying to support MA / MAPD plans and reduce exposure to Sups.
