This quiz now covers Original Medicare, Medicare Supplement (Medigap), and Medicare Advantage. Answer 4 questions and we route you to the path that matches your coverage.
South Carolina seniors face the same Medicare decisions as everyone else — but making the wrong choice in this state can be costly. Original Medicare (Parts A & B) has no annual out-of-pocket maximum, leaving you exposed to unlimited costs in the event of a serious illness, cancer diagnosis, or extended skilled nursing stay. Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans eliminate most of that exposure but vary significantly in premium cost, plan letter, and how premiums are rated over time. Medicare Advantage plans offer additional benefits but operate through provider networks that can change annually, with out-of-pocket maximums that range from under $4,000 to over $8,000 per year.
