Plan G… the best kept secret
Ask yourself, do I want to….
educate rather than dictate?
take the easy route selling Plan F because that’s what
everyone else does?
Or, do you want to market a plan that ….
has the potential to save your clients thousands of dollars
in premiums over their lifetime?
is more difficult for another agent to replace, when
explained properly?
Generally has greater rate stability over time?

Both Plan F and Plan G offer:
Freedom to choose any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare.
Benefits that start immediately with no waiting period for pre-existing
conditions.
No provider networks or referrals required.
No cancellation for age, health or the number of claims you file.
Covers 100% of all Medicare allowable excess charges.
Coverage that expands automatically as original Medicare’s co-
payments and deductibles change.
Virtually no paperwork to get benefits -- claims are filed automatically.
A no risk, 30-day free look period guarantees your client’s satisfaction.

Plan F or Plan G – it’s as easy as 1, 2, 3!
First: Understand the coverage. Under federal law, the ONLY difference is coverage for
the Medicare Part B calendar-year deductible ($147 in 2015). Plan F pays the Part B
deductible while Plan G does not.
Second: Consider the price. Do the easy math and compare the difference between
Plan F and Plan G premiums. Depending on your client’s age and gender, they could
save $300, $600 or even $1,000 per year by self-insuring the Medicare Part B deductible.
Third: Consider the future. Our experience has shown that Plan G has greater rate
stability over time than Plan F. A major factor that contributes to the rate stability is the
business mix. Plan F is exposed to certain “guaranteed issue” requirements while Plan G
is not, allowing the Plan G to have a more stable risk pool. This rate stability results in
greater premium savings overtime!

Premiums Savings Over Time
Example: a 70-year old male, non-tobacco user residing in Texas.*
• Plan F premium $162.52/month
• Plan G premium $121.07/month
$ 41.45/month less in premium!
• An annual savings of $497.40
• Remember the client pays the $147.00 Part B deductible.
Less the Part B deductible, the net savings is $350.00 a year --
making Plan G a great value.
• Now, consider what the savings can be over his lifetime!!

Agents should use caution when asking an
applicant the health questions found on the
application form.
• Don’t rush through the health questions
• Make sure the applicant fully
understands each part of the question
and has enough time to carefully
consider his/her response.
• If an applicant is unsure as to how to
answer any of the health questions
based on his/her health history, contact
our underwriting department for
guidance before you complete the
application form.
Be careful. Responding incorrectly to a
health question can result in a policy that is
later rescinded.
