WTF: Senior, you and the others really need to know what the competition is doing. Just approved here in Illinois by Sterling Life Insurance was an enhanced F plan. This adds dental and vision and other stuff to the F. So I figure if Sterling is in other states they probally have applied for that plan in those states also. I know the DOI approved it here. So.....
I try to keep up with my own and also keep an ear to the ground to find out what is coming in and going on.
Senior: I believe that you once said that one has to contribute to this board to receive back....
Tag your it....LOL
Senior is right, the standard plans were developed by the govt and benefits cannot either be deleted from or added to.
I suspect what they have done is a marketing thing. Continental Life use to require their agents so add $1,500 of life to each Med Supp policy. Agents marketed it as a Med Supp with life insurance but in reality it was two separate policies sold as a "package". The client received a Med Supp policy and a separate Life policy although they only paid one premium.
Anyone who tells you that they have a Med Supp policy with benefits beyond what the fed has approved in the standardized plans is blowing a whole bunch of smoke.
That is, unless the fed has come out with new standardized plans which is very doubtful.
Ask to see the actual policies and I am willing to bet that there are additional policies beyond just the Med Supp policy.
If I am wrong and he fed has approved a new standard plan that none of us are aware of please let me know. I would still like to see the actual policy though.
