Medicare Supplement vs Medicare Advantage in Florida — 2026 Comparison
The single most important Medicare decision Florida seniors make is choosing between Medicare Supplement (Medigap) and Medicare Advantage. Both replace or supplement Original Medicare, but they work completely differently — and the wrong choice can cost thousands of dollars or restrict access to your doctors.

Choosing the right Medicare Supplement plan in Florida depends on your health needs, budget, and how often you visit doctors. Below we break down the key differences to help you make an informed decision.
Plan G — The Most Popular Choice
Plan G covers everything except the Medicare Part B deductible ($240 in 2024). After you meet that deductible, Plan G pays 100% of all Medicare-approved costs. This makes it the most predictable plan — you always know exactly what you'll pay.
Plan N — Lower Premium, Small Copays
Plan N has a lower monthly premium than Plan G but adds copays of up to $20 for office visits and $50 for emergency room visits. If you're healthy and rarely visit doctors, Plan N can save you $30–$50/month compared to Plan G.
Which Should You Choose?
If you visit doctors frequently or want maximum predictability, choose Plan G. If you're generally healthy and want to save on premiums, Plan N is worth considering. A licensed agent can run the numbers for your specific situation at no cost.
