Client has C-Plus Plan & a Medicare Advantage Plan

[Tscholar]

My client has a C-Plus Medicare Select B retirement plan that she pays $60/month for and she has a Humana MAPD plan. How is this possible?

Ignorance. Signed up for the MAPD and never knew to cancel the Select B.

If a person has a Supplement and later enrolls in a MAPD, they must notify the insurance carrier to cancel their coverage.

On the back of her card, it says C Plus is a Medicare Select Plan B Supplement. I spoke with the benefits lady who handles the retiree plan and she assured me that this was not a Medigap plan. I've never dealt with retiree Medicare supplements, so I took her word, especially since the client is already enrolled in a MAPD plan. So, I'm confused. Is there a difference between a retirement Medigap plan and a regular Medigap plan? @somarco your thoughts?
