Who needs a Medicare supplement insurance policy?

Original Medicare pays for many health care services and supplies, but it doesn't pay all of your health care costs. You must pay these gaps in Medicare coverage, which are often deductibles, coinsurance and co-payments. See your out-of-pocket costs.

For a monthly premium, a Medicare supplement insurance policy helps you pay all or some of these costs, depending on the plan you choose.
