Original Medicare totals use the lowest Plan G price that New York Department of Financial Services, community rated Medicare Supplement premiums (in effect as of October 1, 2026) lists for a 65-year-old woman who does not use tobacco, $336 a month. A plan with no drug coverage counts drugs at full price, unless its members can add a separate drug plan. A plan name with a link opens a page where you can change the care level, the Medigap plan, your age, and your drugs.

Medigap prices come from New York Department of Financial Services, community rated Medicare Supplement premiums (in effect as of October 1, 2026), pulled 2026-10-13. They are for the price area that includes ZIP 10512. Totals use typical Medicare-allowed amounts for each service and typical drug prices.
