My philosophy always has been to look for carriers with at least 5 years in the Medigap market under the same name. Almost impossible to find that now outside of BX, UHC and Humana.
That leads me to another question.
There are multiple medigap plans. suppose you were looking for a particular catgory of medigap plan - say plan Z. You find a carrier that meets your five year criteria and also has a low price for plan Z. However, for every other plan that carrier offers in your state, they have what you consider to be an unreasonably high premium. How do you factor the carrier's pricing practice with other plans into the decision surrounding plan Z?
