Trying to understand Medicare can be really confusing.
You're probably coming up on age 65, or you may be dropping off your employer health plan because you're retiring.
Whatever your situation, there's some basic information you need to know- Medicare has 4 parts: Part A, B, C and D, plus something called Medicare Supplemental or "Medigap".
Medicare Part A (hospital insurance): This covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facilities, hospice care, and some home health care.
You get it by signing up for Medicare.

Medicare Supplement Plans provide additional coverage beyond Part A and Part B known as Original Medicare.
Medicare is great coverage but it does have gaps and holes.
It doesn't cover everything 100%.
Medicare Supplement, also called Medigap, helps to fill in those gaps that Original Medicare Parts A and B don't cover.
You need to be enrolled in Medicare Part A and Part B in order to get a Medicare Supplement plan.
Medicare Part A is your hospital coverage and Part B covers your medical up to 80%.

The rates are typically a lot higher on Plan F than Plan G, sometimes $40-50 more per month.
The only difference is the Part B deductible of $203 on Plan G.
The plans are exactly the same coverage except for the small deductible.
With Plan G, if you don't get sick then you may not even have to pay a deductible at all.
One important thing to keep in mind - Plan F will not be available to "newly eligible" enrollees to Medicare starting in 2020.
The reason for this is the government is trying to cut down on Medicare spending, by eliminating first dollar coverage (plans that do not have a deductible).
