What is Care Plus Medigap?
It is the name of our supplemental policy to Original Medicare which is offered to retired government employees with the Medicare Parts A and Part B and can help pay for some of the health care costs that Original Medicare does not cover, such as coinsurance and deductibles.
Triple-S Salud offers you the C model of Medicare supplemental plans. The coinsurance and deductibles covered by this policy will accrue according to the charges accepted under Original Medicare.
Model C is a plan that covers deductibles and coinsurance established for benefits covered in Part A and Part B Medicare Program. This model applies to affiliates who turn 65 years in the current year, are disabled or have Medicare before that date.

The following table allows you to compare some of the benefits, deductibles and coinsurance covered by Medicare and Care Plus Medigap for Model C.
