Mutual of Omaha offers Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) policies and Medicare Part D* prescription drug plans to those on the Original Medicare Plan. By purchasing a Medigap policy, you are able to visit any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare and receive coverage for the copayments and deductibles you would pay under the Original Medicare Plan. You also receive extra benefits, such as more covered inpatient hospital care and blood transfusions, along with even more possible benefits depending on your plan.
Since Medigap policies are nationally standardized, your choice of a Medicare supplement insurance company will depend on the price and quality of service available from the company providing the plan. Mutual of Omaha provides Medigap policies through United World Medicare, which has been a Mutual of Omaha company for over 25 years. Mutual of Omaha helps you to understand your Medicare coverage options and provides information about the plans available that might best serve your individual situation. Having a Medicare Supplement policy from Mutual of Omaha streamlines your Medicare claims process and gives you access to high quality customer service representatives. Mutual of Omaha also supports community service efforts such as Habitat for Humanity and United Way.
