- Medicare Select Plans require that you use Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois contracting Medicare Select hospitals for non-emergency admissions to receive coverage for the Medicare Part A deductible. In an emergency, the $1,600 deductible is covered at any hospital from which you receive care. Only certain hospitals are network providers under this policy. Check with your physician to determine if he or she has admitting privileges at the network hospital. If he or she does not, you may be required to use another physician at the time of hospitalization or you will be required to pay for all expenses. If you move out of the service area, there will be a reduction of benefit coverage and you will have the opportunity to purchase any Medicare Supplement Insurance policy with comparable or lesser benefits offered by the insurer, or Medicare Supplement Insurance/Select plans A, B, C, or F from any insurer within 63 days of termination.
- You must live within 30 miles of a participating Medicare Select hospital to be eligible.
- Not to exceed any charge limitation established by the Medicare program or state law.
- Plans cover medically necessary emergency care services needed immediately because of an injury or illness of sudden and unexpected onset, beginning during the first 60 days of each trip outside the USA. There is a deductible of $250 and a lifetime maximum benefit of $50,000.
- The out-of-pocket annual limit may increase each year for inflation (2023 limits shown).
- Plan N requires a copayment of up to $20 for office visits and a copayment of up to $50 for ER.
- These high deductible plans pay the same benefits as Plans F and G after one has paid a calendar-year $2,800 deductible. Benefits from High Deductible Plans F and G will not begin until you have paid a minimum amount of $2,800 in out-of-pocket expenses. Out-of-pocket expenses for this deductible are expenses that would ordinarily be paid by the policy. This includes the Medicare deductibles for Part A and Part B but does not include the plan’s separate foreign travel emergency deductible.
