Supplemental Health Insurance for Seniors


Medicare is a federal system of health insurance for senior citizens aged 65 and older designed to pay for certain medical expenses. With this there are large gaps in the coverage necessary for some seniors. To help with the cost of these omissions in coverage many seniors choose to add a supplemental insurance policy to add to Medicare called Medigap coverage.
