Why an Independent Medicare Agent is Your Key to a Robust Medigap Plan
Navigating Medicare can feel like exploring unfamiliar territory, especially when you need a plan that offers comprehensive coverage and predictable costs. For those seeking strong financial protection against unexpected medical expenses, Medigap (Medicare Supplement Insurance) plans are a valuable choice.

How do you find the right Medigap plan among so many options?
Partnering with an Independent Medicare Agent is the smartest approach. At The Geller Agency, our dedicated independent advisors are committed to securing the most comprehensive coverage at the best value.
Here’s why working with us makes all the difference.
Demystifying Medigap: Your Shield Against Out-of-Pocket Costs
A Medigap plan fills the gaps in Original Medicare (Parts A and B), covering costs like:
Medicare Part A deductibles and coinsurance for hospital stays, including extended periods;
Medicare Part B coinsurance or copayments for doctor visits, outpatient care, and durable medical equipment; skilled nursing facility care coinsurance;
Blood transfusions (first three pints); and even foreign travel emergency coverage (up to plan limits).
These standardized plans, labeled A through N, offer varying levels of coverage but aim to provide peace of mind by reducing or eliminating out-of-pocket expenses. This predictability is vital for those expecting frequent medical care or seeking financial security against unexpected health issues. For SSDI recipients, who may qualify for Medicare after a 24-month waiting period, Medigap insurance can be critical for covering disability-related treatments like physical therapy or specialized care. While coverage within a standardized plan (e.g., Plan G) is identical across providers, premiums can vary significantly, making comparison essential.
The Independent Advantage: Unparalleled Breadth and Depth of Options
Unlike captive agents limited to a single insurance company’s offerings, Independent Medicare Agents can compare Medigap plans from dozens of reputable carriers. This ensures we find the best Medigap plan for seniors based on your specific needs, not just more options.
Our independent medicare agents thoroughly compare coverage details, monthly premiums, and unique carrier benefits to explore every viable choice.
Whether you want the near-comprehensive coverage and predictability of a Medigap Plan G or the budget-friendly balance of Plan N, an independent agent is uniquely positioned to identify the plan that delivers the most value and aligns with your financial comfort.

Why Comprehensive Medigap Coverage Matters to Your Health and Wallet
Choosing a robust Medigap plan empowers your healthcare experience by offering predictable healthcare costs, freeing you from financial worry during illness; freedom of choice to see any doctor, specialist, or hospital nationwide that accepts Medicare without referrals; and no network restrictions with Original Medicare, unlike many Medicare Advantage plans.
For unexpected hospitalizations or costly treatments, a Medigap plan acts as a financial shield, letting you focus on recovery rather than bills.
Personalized Guidance for Maximum Value, Forged from Experience
At The Geller Agency, our independent agents don’t just present options—we tailor solutions. Our founder, Andrew Geller, built this agency on active listening and personalized advice. His passion for Medicare began while assisting Social Security Disability (SSDI) clients navigating Medicare for the first time, highlighting the need for empathetic guidance in a complex system.
We take time to understand your medical history, current health needs, preferred doctors, budget, and lifestyle (like travel frequency). This comprehensive approach lets us recommend a Medigap plan balancing cost and coverage.
For example, if you expect frequent doctor visits or need specialized care, we focus on plans that minimize those out-of-pocket costs, ensuring you’re never overpaying for unneeded coverage or underinsured when care is critical.
Simplifying the Process, At No Cost to You
Choosing and enrolling in a Medigap plan, especially considering guaranteed issue periods and potential underwriting, can feel overwhelming. An independent agent at The Geller Agency simplifies every step by breaking down complex details, explaining plan differences, enrollment windows, and eligibility rules in clear language; guiding you through enrollment with paperwork and deadlines; and assisting with future changes as your needs evolve during applicable enrollment periods.
Our expert, personalized services come at no cost to you. Our compensation comes from insurance companies, a standard industry practice that keeps our focus on finding the best plan for you, without impacting your pocket.
