The Medigap Guide: Clear, Confident Guidance on Medicare Supplement Insurance
Two people can share the same Medicare eligibility, live in the same ZIP code, and end up thousands of dollars apart over a decade of retirement - not because one got lucky, but because one did the research the other skipped. The Medigap Guide is built for the reader who wants to be that first person.
This is a plain-language, no-sales-pitch walkthrough of Medicare Supplement insurance for people approaching or already enrolled in Medicare - and for the adult children helping them decide. Instead of vague reassurance, it hands you two repeatable tools: the SMART Decision Framework for evaluating any Medicare choice with discipline, and the Insider Method for comparing carriers the way an informed shopper would, not the way a sales rep hopes you will.
Inside, you'll find straight answers on plan comparisons and enrollment timelines, the costly mistakes that quietly drain retirement budgets, how Medigap interacts with Part D drug coverage, and the specific scam patterns aimed at Medicare-age consumers - with worksheets, checklists, and real case studies throughout so the ideas turn into decisions. Fully updated for 2026, it also covers this year's changes: the new $2,100 Part D out-of-pocket cap, expanded care-coordination benefits, and adjusted premiums and deductibles.
You don't need to memorize this book. You need the habit of asking the right question at the right time - and The Medigap Guide is built to make that habit automatic, one chapter at a time.
