Cheapest Medigap Plan G and Plan N in Maryland

High-deductible Plan G

Same benefits as Plan G after you pay a yearly deductible ($2,950 in 2026), so it isn’t ranked against standard plans. A low premium here means you carry more of the risk yourself.

Plans with membership or eligibility limits

These plans appear in the Maryland guide but aren’t open to every resident (for example, AARP plans require AARP membership) or are Medicare SELECT plans with a provider network, so we list them as published instead of ranking them.

How we rank

We take each insurer’s premium for Plan G and Plan N at 65 straight from Maryland’s official guide and multiply monthly premiums by 12 to get the yearly cost. Each insurer appears once, at its best published rate class that isn’t a tobacco rate. Lower ranks higher; ties go to the lower premium at 75 where the guide shows it, then the insurer’s name. We don’t estimate, round or adjust any premium. Full methodology.

The cheapest policy at 65 isn’t always the cheapest later. An attained-age policy goes up as you get older, an issue-age policy is priced on your age when you buy, and a community-rated policy charges everyone the same. How the three methods compare.

Before you buy: get a written quote from the insurer, ask how its rates have risen, and check Medicare.gov’s Medigap policy search. Your State Health Insurance Assistance Program gives free, unbiased help. Buying during your Medigap Open Enrollment Period means insurers can’t turn you down or charge more for health problems.

Questions

What is the cheapest Medigap Plan G in Maryland?

In the rate guide from the Maryland Insurance Administration (as of July 1, 2026), the lowest Plan G premium at 65 from an insurer open to all applicants is: Female · Baltimore Metro, D.C. Metro and Western Maryland: Monitor Life Insurance Company of New York, $2,124 a year ($177 a month); Female · Eastern and Southern Maryland: Monitor Life Insurance Company of New York, $2,124 a year ($177 a month); Male · Baltimore Metro, D.C. Metro and Western Maryland: Monitor Life Insurance Company of New York, $2,436 a year ($203 a month); Male · Eastern and Southern Maryland: Monitor Life Insurance Company of New York, $2,436 a year ($203 a month). Your own quote depends on your age, ZIP code, health and the date you apply.

What is the cheapest Medigap Plan N in Maryland?

Female · Baltimore Metro, D.C. Metro and Western Maryland: First Health Life and Health Insurance Company, $1,344 a year ($112 a month); Female · Eastern and Southern Maryland: First Health Life and Health Insurance Company, $1,344 a year ($112 a month); Male · Baltimore Metro, D.C.

Plan N has copays of up to $20 for some office visits and up to $50 for emergency room visits and doesn’t cover Part B excess charges, which is why it usually costs less than Plan G.

How much do Plan G premiums vary between insurers in Maryland?

Plan G benefits are the same from every insurer, but in this guide the yearly premium at 65 runs from $2,124 to $4,728. Insurers also price future increases differently (attained-age, issue-age or community-rated), so compare the older-age premiums too where they’re shown.

Where do these Maryland Medigap rates come from?

From the Maryland Insurance Administration: “Monthly Premiums for Medicare Supplement Insurance Policies” (as of July 1, 2026). We copy the premiums exactly as published and rank them; we don’t estimate or adjust them. Monthly premiums at ages 65, 70, 75, 80 and 85 by sex and rate class (for example preferred, standard, non-tobacco, tobacco). Rates marked * in the guide can’t be used for applications made during Medigap open enrollment or a guaranteed-issue period. One insurer (CareFirst MedPlus) prices two regions separately.
