If you already have California Medicare coverage, you may be wondering why you might need a Medicare supplement, as well. After all, doesn’t Medicare cover your health insurance needs?
Unfortunately for seniors, Medicare was never designed to cover all of your medical expenses after you turn 65. The program is intended to help you with your out of pocket medical expenses during your retirement. However, most seniors are on a limited, fixed income, and find the Medicare doesn’t cover enough if they have medical bills. Most seniors find it too expensive to pay for a lot of out-of-pocket medical expenses during their retirement.
It was for this reason that health insurance companies began offering Medicare supplement programs. These programs help cover out-of-pocket medical expenses for seniors, and make it easier to afford quality health care.
One company that offers a wide range of Medicare supplement plans for seniors is Anthem Blue Cross. Whether you prefer a high deductible plan that has low premiums, or a plan with lower deductibles that pays for 100% of all covered Medicare benefits, you can find what you are looking for at Anthem Blue Cross. You can also get help in comparing plans with the licensed insurance experts at Benefit Packages. Call today for more information on Anthem Blue Cross Medicare Supplement plans.
