The Best Alabama Medicare Supplement Plans (2025)

The cost of Medicare Supplement plans partly depends on your age. In Alabama, 65-year-olds pay an average of $123 per month, while 75-year-olds spend $164. Plans F and G are the most popular due to their comprehensive coverage. These cost $195 and $118 on average per month, respectively. However, you can only purchase Plan F if you were eligible for Medicare before 2020.

Plan N is the next most popular plan. It offers similar coverage to Plans F and G but involves some excess charges. Plan N costs an average of $104 per month for 65-year-olds and $140 for 75-year-olds.

In Alabama, UnitedHealthcare offers the best Medigap Plan G. UnitedHealthcare also has a SELECT plan, a version of the standardized Medicare Supplement plan that limits where you may receive care to a given network. A SELECT plan is typically more affordable because of this restriction. For UnitedHealthcare’s Plan G, the SELECT version has a monthly rate of $113.
