Best Medicare Supplement Plans in North Dakota

Atlantic Capital has North Dakota's cheapest Plan G at $127 per month and Cigna has the lowest rates on Plan F at $144 and Plan N at $91. Every provider in MoneyGeek's North Dakota analysis uses either Attained Age or Issue Age pricing, no carrier currently offers community-rated plans in the state, Attained Age plans start cheaper and increase premiums every year. Issue Age plans lock your rate at enrollment. 

New Medicare beneficiaries who enrolled on or after January 1, 2020 cannot buy Plan F, Plan G is the most comprehensive option available to them. Seniors who enrolled before 2020 should price Plan F alongside Plan G before deciding. Shoppers with lower medical use who want to reduce monthly costs should look at Plans N, K and L before the higher-premium options.

Medicare Supplement Plan Cost in North Dakota

Medicare Supplement insurance costs in North Dakota average $171 monthly for 65-year-olds in 2026, ranging from $84 to $245 across 10 standardized plan types. Plan K costs the least at $84 monthly while Plan C costs the most at $245.

The most popular plans: Plan G, Plan F and Plan N, average $178, $236 and $136 monthly. Annual costs range from $1,008 to $2,940. Your actual premium depends on the provider, your age and the insurer's pricing style.

A$160$1,920
B$215$2,580
C$245$2,940
D$191$2,292
F$236$2,832
G$178$2,136
K$84$1,008
L$127$1,524
M$137$1,644
N$136$1,632

The cost table shows why plan type selection matters more than carrier selection for some shoppers. Plan K at $84 monthly costs $94 less than Plan G at $178, a $1,128 annual difference, but Plan K requires you to pay 50% of most Medicare costs until you hit the annual out-of-pocket limit. For healthy seniors with low annual care use, that trade-off can work in their favor.

How to Choose the Best Medicare Supplement Plan

Once you've picked a plan type, compare North Dakota providers on these factors to find the lowest rate and best fit.

  1. 1
    Assess Your Health Care Needs

    Do you travel frequently? How often do you see doctors? Plans with higher monthly premiums often cost less overall when you use them frequently. If you have ongoing medical conditions requiring regular treatment, a higher monthly premium usually costs less over the year through lower out-of-pocket expenses. In MoneyGeek's North Dakota analysis, the difference between Plan K at $84 monthly and Plan G at $178 monthly is $94, but Plan K requires 50% cost-sharing until you hit the annual limit, which can erase the premium savings for anyone who sees a doctor more than a few times a year.

  2. 2
    Compare Plan Types

    Plan G covers the most for new Medicare beneficiaries and has no coverage gaps except the Part B deductible. Plan N has similar benefits at a lower monthly premium, but you'll pay up to $20 for doctor visits and up to $50 for emergency room visits that don't result in inpatient admission. Plan F provides the most complete coverage with no out-of-pocket costs, it's available only to those who enrolled in Medicare before 2020.

    Plans K and L cost less monthly but require you to pay a percentage of costs until you hit an annual cap. Plans A, C and D cover basics with varying benefit levels. Plans B and M fill specific gaps between basic and comprehensive coverage.

  3. 3
    Get Quotes From Multiple Providers

    Get quotes from at least three companies to confirm you're paying the lowest available rate. Insurers charge different rates for identical coverage.

  4. 4
    Check Pricing Style

    Three pricing methods exist: Issue Age (locked at your enrollment age), Attained Age (rises as you age) and Community-Rated (same for everyone). No carrier in North Dakota currently offers community-rated plans, so the choice is between Issue Age and Attained Age. MoneyGeek's North Dakota data includes rates for both 65-year-olds and 75-year-olds. Issue Age plans from Transamerica lock your rate at enrollment and avoid that increase entirely.

  5. 5
    Check Company Ratings

    Check AM Best ratings for financial stability and customer satisfaction scores for service quality. Cheaper premiums aren't worth it if your insurer delays claims or provides poor service.

  6. 6
    Enroll During Open Enrollment

    The six-month open enrollment window starts when you turn 65 and enroll in Medicare Part B. In North Dakota, no carrier currently offers community-rated plans, so the pricing method you lock in at enrollment, Attained Age or Issue Age, shapes every premium increase you see for the rest of your coverage. Enrolling during open enrollment guarantees acceptance regardless of health conditions. Outside this window, insurers can charge more or decline coverage.

Which Medicare Supplement Plan in North Dakota Is Right for You?

New Medicare beneficiaries (enrolled January 1, 2020 or later) should start with Atlantic Capital's Plan G at $127 a month. It is the cheapest Plan G in North Dakota and $51 below the state average. Transamerica uses Issue Age pricing for Plans K, L and M, which locks your premium at enrollment rather than increasing it each year. Price both before enrolling if long-term rate stability matters to you.

Seniors eligible for Plan F should compare Cigna's $144 rate against Atlantic Capital's $149. Cigna leads by $5 a month and $60 per year. Cigna saves $92 monthly against the state average. Atlantic Capital saves $87.

Shoppers who want the lowest possible monthly premium should look at Plan K through Transamerica at $75 monthly. Plan K carries cost-sharing requirements, so it works best for seniors with low annual medical use who want to keep fixed monthly costs down.

Our Methodology

MoneyGeek collected North Dakota Medicare Supplement data for 65-year-olds and 75-year-olds using Medicare.gov's plan browsing tool. Unless otherwise noted, this article references quotes for 65-year-olds.

We scored North Dakota Medigap companies across three categories to create a weighted score out of 5:

  • Affordability (50%): Plans with lower monthly premiums receive higher scores.
  • Pricing style (20%): We evaluated pricing structures based on long-term cost stability. Community Pricing earned the highest score (1.0), followed by Issue-Age Pricing (0.8) and Attained-Age Pricing (0.6). A community-rated plan with a higher starting premium may score better than a lower-cost attained-age plan because rates remain steady over time.
  • Plan availability (30%): Insurers offering a wider selection of Medigap plans scored higher. Popular options, including Plans G, F and N, carried greater weight in the scoring process.
