Medicare Supplement Plans in Georgia
You may be surprised to know that as of October, 2013 there are more than 40 Medicare Supplement Plans in Georgia. The good news is that you don’t have to contact every one of them to find out which one has the best rates in your area. Independent Medicare Supplement Agencies like Southern Senior Care are licensed with some, most or all all of the available plans in Georgia.
Independent Agencies are also equipped with computer programs that enable us to see all of rates for all of the plans in your area. Since Medicare Supplement Plans are regulated by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, once you have a comprehensive list of plans and rates, the decision of which to go with is usually pretty simple. Here is a partial list of plans currently available in Georgia.
