Medigap Plan K offers you the same basic benefits as other supplements, but with lower premiums. Plan K is also a cost-sharing plan, meaning your plan will cover part of some costs while you are responsible for the other half.
Medicare Plan K also includes a cap on your spending called an out-of-pocket maximum. For instance, let’s say you have a year with a lot of medical treatments. If your out-of-pocket spending reaches the maximum limit, then your Medigap K policy will kick in to pay all of the rest for that year. The out-of-pocket maximum for 2023 was $6,940, but for 2024 it is $7,060.
