I can see where a regular guy like me could get confused. I did a google search and apparently live in the only state that has this requirement:
During a guaranteed issue period of at least one month each calendar year, as established by the issuer, every issuer shall offer standardized Medicare Supplement Plan A, as defined by rule, to all applicants on a basis that does not deny coverage to any individual or group based on health status, claims experience, receipt of health care, or medical condition.

What state would that be?
I'm sure it is a state provision and not a part of Medicare's rules and regs. Just like the Guar Issue provision is a state law in both California and Missouri.
In Calif each person has a 30 day Guar Issue on their birth date and in Missouri it is also a 30 day Guar Issue only on the anniversary date of the policy. However, if a person has a Plan F in Missouri the agent can only replace it with a Plan F. Not any other Plan.
