What Is The Best Medigap Coverage? 
Plan F offers the most comprehensive coverage - it covers all Medigap benefits at 100 % from day 1 . The advantage of this plan is that it creates a very predictable healthcare expense structure -LRB- for the most part , you 're writing a check for your premium and you 're done - you wo n't get hit with big bills for any Medicare-approved charge -RRB- . Plan G is the second most comprehensive plan available - it 's identical to plan F except you would be responsible for the Medicare Part B deductible -LRB- $ 147 in 2014 -RRB- . The advantage of a plan G is that in many areas the savings in premium per year are greater than the cost of the deductible . For example , if the difference in premium is $ 30 per month - you 're saving $ 360 per year by taking on a risk of $ 147 . Please note , the plans feature the exact same benefits regardless of which carrier you have the coverage through - the big factor to look at the price of the plan you select .
