Medigap plans are also known as Medicare supplement plans. They are designed to dovetail in to your original Medicare coverage and pick up the "gaps" in your Medicare coverage.
Medigap plans pay claims approved by Medicare A and B but not paid by Medicare due to copay's, deductibles and coinsurance.
