Health IQ Coverage

Level of Coverage - 4.8 / 5

Medicare Supplement insurance, also known as MediGap insurance, covers the "gaps" in Medicare Part A and B. Medicare Supplement plans help to cover these out-of-pocket costs that Traditional Medicare does not cover, such as deductibles, copays, and other related extra costs. Health IQ partners with a large network of insurance carriers and provides discounted rates for those with healthy lifestyles. In terms of Medicare Supplement plan types, plans offered will depend entirely on whichever carrier Health IQ offers to connect you with. It's a good idea to review the various plans below and discuss them with Health IQ representatives in order to find an insurance provider that has the plans that best suit your needs.

Plan Types

  • Plan A - It includes hospital copayment costs up to a year after Medicare benefits are exhausted, the first three pints of blood, Part B coinsurance including preventive care services after deductible, and hospice care.
  • Plan B - Offers the same amount of coverage as Plan A, with the addition of a hospital deductible in each benefit period.
  • Plan C - One of the most popular plans, it adds on a skilled nursing facility daily copay, the Part B annual deductible, and emergency care outside of the U.S.
  • Plan D - Though this includes most of the same benefits as plan C, it does not cover the Part B deductible.
  • Plan G - Covers almost every Medicare supplemental insurance benefit, with the exception of Part B's annual deductible.
  • Plan K - Covers half of: Part B co-insurance, first 3 pints of blood, hospital deductible, skilled nursing facility, and hospice care. It also covers all the co-insurance for Part B preventive care services.
  • Plan L - Just like Plan K, this covers all of your Part A & B copays after a certain amount out-of-pocket, and 75% of every benefit that Plan K covers (instead of 50%).
  • Plan M - Covers hospital copayments, 75% of Part B co-insurance, first 3 pints of blood, 50% of hospital deductible, skilled nursing facility, foreign emergency care, 100% Part B preventive care services post-deductible, and hospice care.
  • Plan N - Covers hospital copayments, Part B co-insurance except $20 for office visits & $50 for emergency visits, first 3 pints of blood, hospital deductible, SNF, foreign care, all of Part B co-insurance for preventive care, and hospice care.

Health IQ Pricing

Services - 4.7 / 5

Pricing on Medicare Supplement plans varies by many factors, such as home address, plan selection, and age. Health IQ offers an unusual benefit that allows consumers to save money by demonstrating their "health literacy." Potential customers take a health assessment quiz to ascertain their level of health and health literacy. This will include questions about diet, habits, activity levels, etc. When they are finished, customers can save up to 26% depending on their lifestyle and level of health. Because of the emphasis on physical wellbeing during the application process, Health IQ has access to discounted rates many other agencies don't and can potentially save customers thousands of dollars during the course of their policy. But since Health IQ is a marketplace, further discounts will depend on whichever carrier you wish to pair with.
