Medica today announced a new Medicare Supplement health plan for Medicare-eligible residents of Minnesota. The plan, Signature SolutionSM, helps pay costs not covered by Original Medicare, including Medicare deductibles and coinsurance. The plan is available for enrollment starting March 1, 2018.
Signature Solution enrollees can choose from two medical plan options. The Basic option allows an enrollee to add up to four riders that enhance coverage in specific ways such as coverage of the Medicare Part A or B deductible, provider charges above what Medicare allows and non-Medicare covered preventive services. The Extended Basic option provides very comprehensive coverage. The tobacco-free base rate for the Basic plan is $163.60 per month, while the tobacco-free rate for the Extended Basic option is $228.00 per month.
With Signature Solution, enrollees can see any provider that accepts Medicare anywhere in the United States. Other key features of Signature Solution include:
“Signature Solution is the latest example of Medica’s expanding product portfolio that is designed to meet consumer needs,” said Thomas Lindquist, Medica senior vice president of government programs. “Baby boomers, in particular as they become eligible for Medicare coverage, want more product options. We began to strategically expand Medicare private insurance options last fall with the introduction of Advantage Solution and now have a complete suite that includes Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage, Medicare Cost plans and stand-alone Part D options.”
