I have heard that Plan F is the most popular Medicare Supplements in Texas, is that true? A. Yes. Texas Medicare Supplement Plan F is probably the most popular plan because it covers all the deductibles and all the coinsurance. So if it is a Medicare approved expense, you will pay nothing. Another popular Texas Medicare Supplement is Plan G. The primary difference is Plan G Medicare Supplement does not cover the Medicare Part B deductible. Q. I have a question about my bill, what should I do first? A. You should contact your provider to discuss your concerns.
