What the lowest Plan G rates in Connecticut look like in plain terms

The lowest-priced Plan G carriers in Connecticut are HealthSpring National Health Insurance Company at $246 per month, Transamerica Life Insurance Company (Direct) at $277 per month, and AARP - UnitedHealthcare Insurance Company at $295 per month. Each figure is the lowest premium that carrier currently files in Connecticut; your own premium depends on your age, ZIP code, sex, and tobacco use.

Across the 9 carriers selling Plan G in Connecticut, the lowest premium is $246 per month and the median is $332 per month. That is a gap of $86 a month — about $1,032 a year — between the cheapest Plan G in Connecticut and a middle-of-the-road one, for coverage that is identical by federal law. Comparing carriers in Connecticut is the only thing that closes that gap.

What Plan G covers in Connecticut

Medigap Plan G is standardized: a Plan G sold in Connecticut covers exactly what a Plan G sold anywhere else does, whatever the carrier charges. It works alongside Original Medicare (Parts A and B) and cannot be paired with a Medicare Advantage plan. In 2026 a Plan G in Connecticut pays:

• Your Part A hospital deductible — $1,736 per benefit period in 2026, which can apply more than once in a year
• Part A hospital coinsurance, plus 365 additional days after Medicare's end
• The 20% Part B coinsurance that Original Medicare leaves you to pay
• Skilled nursing facility coinsurance — $217 per day for days 21–100 in 2026
• Part B excess charges, if a provider bills above the Medicare-approved amount
• The first three pints of blood, and Part A hospice coinsurance
• Foreign travel emergency care at 80%, up to the policy limits

Plan G does not cover the annual Part B deductible — $283 in 2026 — which you pay yourself before Plan G begins. That single deductible is the only benefit difference between Plan G and the discontinued Plan F. Plan G also does not cover prescription drugs, so most people in Connecticut add a separate Part D plan.

A Plan G premium in Connecticut is on top of your Part B premium, which is $202.90/month in 2026 for most people and is paid to Medicare, not to the Medigap carrier. Budget for both.

Why Plan G premiums differ so much between carriers in Connecticut

Because the benefits are fixed by law, carriers in Connecticut compete only on price, service, and how steeply they raise rates later. What you are quoted in Connecticut moves with your age, your ZIP code, your sex, and whether you use tobacco. Carriers also choose how a premium rises over time: community-rated (everyone pays the same regardless of age), issue-age (fixed to your age when you bought it), or attained-age (rises as you get older). Attained-age policies in Connecticut often quote lowest at 65 and cost the most later, so the cheapest first-year premium is not always the cheapest over ten years — ask each carrier in Connecticut which method it uses and what its rate-increase history looks like.

When you can buy Plan G in Connecticut

Your Medigap open enrollment period runs six months from the first day of the month you are both 65 or older and enrolled in Part B. Inside that window a carrier in Connecticut must sell you any Plan G it offers at its standard rate — no health questions, no refusal for a pre-existing condition. It is the one stretch where the lowest premium in Connecticut is available to everyone, and it does not repeat.

After that window, most applications in Connecticut go through medical underwriting and a carrier can decline you, except where a federal guaranteed-issue right applies — losing employer coverage, for instance, or a Medicare Advantage plan leaving your area. Some states add their own protections on top of the federal ones; our Connecticut guide below covers what applies locally.
