Alaska Medicare Supplement Plan Cost

Alaska's 65-year-olds pay anywhere from $92 to $285 monthly for Medicare Supplement insurance based on plan type. The $141 spread between Plan K and Plan G is the widest cost gap on the table. That range reflects the cost of predictability. Plan G costs $141 more per month because it covers nearly every gap.

Plan N costs $203 monthly. It covers the Part A deductible and most Part B coinsurance, with copays of up to $20 for some office visits and up to $50 for emergency room visits that don't result in admission.   

Plan K at $92 per month is the most budget-friendly option as it covers half of most approved costs until you reach the $8,000 annual out-of-pocket limit. Plan L at $145 monthly covers three-quarters of most approved costs and caps annual exposure at $4,000. It suits seniors who want more coverage than Plan K but still prefer a lower monthly premium

Most Alaska seniors pay $30 more per month for Plan G over Plan N to avoid copays of up to $20 per office visit. The break-even is 18 specialist visits per year. Below that threshold, Plan N saves more annually than the copays cost.

How to Choose the Best Alaska Medicare Supplement Plan

Federal law standardizes Medicare Supplement plans, which means Plan G covers the same benefits regardless of which insurer sells it. Companies compete on price, not on what each plan covers. The choice comes down to which plan letter fits your expected health costs, then which insurer charges the least for that plan.

    Most Comprehensive Coverage
    • Plan G: Comparable to Plan F, covers everything except Part B deductible.
    • Plan F: Covers all gaps including Part B deductible and excess charges (closed to new members as of 2020).

How to Find the Best Alaska Medicare Supplement Company

The right insurer depends on which plan letter you've chosen, not which company has the best overall score. Our analysis of every Alaska Medigap carrier found that rates for the same plan vary by nearly $100 per month between insurers. Matching your plan choice to the right carrier is where the savings are.

  1. 1
    Start With USAA if You're in a Military Household

    Once you've settled on a plan letter, the best insurer depends on your situation. Military families should start with USAA. Its Plan A at $90 per month and Plan F at $193 are the lowest rates in Alaska. For members, USAA's satisfaction scores among Medigap policyholders are above the industry average.

  2. 2
    Choose State Farm for Plan G and Plan N

    For Plan G and Plan N, State Farm offers Alaska's best rates for both. Plan G at $137 saves over $1,100 per year versus the state average. For seniors who prefer to manage their policy in person, its local agent network across Alaska is a practical advantage.

  3. 3
    Go With Transamerica for Plans K, L and M

    Transamerica is the only Alaska carrier for Plans K, L and M. Confirm the pricing style with a Transamerica agent before enrolling, as that information was not publicly available for our analysis.

    Compare Rates on Medicare.gov Before Committing

Our Review Methodology

MoneyGeek collected data for all Medicare plans in Alaska for 65-year-olds and 75-year-olds through the plan browsing tool at Medicare.gov. Unless otherwise noted, all rates shown are quotes pulled for 65-year-olds in Alaska.

We scored Medigap companies in Alaska based on three main categories to create a weighted score out of 5:

  • Affordability (50%): Monthly premium is the primary scoring factor. Carriers with the lowest cost for each plan type receive the highest affordability scores.
  • Pricing style (20%): Medigap insurers use three methods to determine premiums: Community Pricing, Issue-Age Pricing and Attained Age Pricing. We scored pricing styles by stability: Community Pricing 1.0, Issue-Age Pricing 0.8, Attained Age Pricing 0.6. A slightly higher-cost community-rated plan can still outscore a cheaper attained-age plan when pricing stability is weighted.
  • Plan availability (30%): Carriers offering more plan types score higher, with extra credit for the most widely chosen options: Plan G, Plan F and Plan N.
