In January, 2013 many Georgia Medicare Supplement rates increased, and some as much as 12%. If you have a GA Medigap plan from Aetna, Blue Cross, Family Life, Gerber, Mutual of Omaha, Royal Neighbors (RNA) or Sterling your Medicare supplement rates probably increased. If your policy is less than 12 months old, expect your rates to increase on your next anniversary.
How do I know if my Georgia doctor will take my Medicare supplement plan? I want to still see my doctor any time I want. I don’t want an insurance company telling me which doctor I can see and which I can.
