 Recent research indicates Medigap continues to be particularly important to low and moderate-income beneficiaries, especially those living in rural areas. According to the National Association of Insurance Carriers:
- Nationwide, 48 percent of all non-institutionalized Medicare beneficiaries without any other insurance coverage (M/A, VA, Medicaid, or employer-sponsored insurance) had Medigap policies in 2012;
- 58 percent of Medigap policyholders are women;
- Medigap serves an older population: 47 percent are 75-years or older compared to only 38 percent for all Medicare beneficiaries.
