Common questions

Florida Medicare โ€” frequently asked questions

Below are answers to the questions Florida seniors ask us most often.

Florida has the largest 65+ population of any state and the highest Medicare Advantage enrollment rate in the nation โ€” over 60% of Florida seniors. As a result, insurance carriers compete aggressively to win Florida enrollees, which drives richer benefits, lower premiums, and higher OTC supplement allowances than most other states. Miami-Dade and Broward counties in particular have some of the most generous plan benefits in the entire country.
The best time to enroll in a Medigap plan in Florida is during your 6-month Medigap Open Enrollment Period (OEP), which starts the month you turn 65 and enroll in Medicare Part B. During this window, Florida insurers must sell you any Medigap plan at the same price regardless of your health. However, unlike New York, Florida does not require year-round guaranteed issue for Medigap โ€” so enrolling during your OEP is critical to avoid health-based underwriting.
The standard Medicare Part B premium is set by the federal government and is the same in all states, including Florida. For 2026, confirm the current amount at medicare.gov โ€” it is typically adjusted each January. However, higher-income Florida seniors (individuals earning above $103,000 or couples above $206,000) pay a higher Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA) surcharge on top of the standard premium.
Yes. Florida offers Medicare Savings Programs (MSPs) for eligible low-income residents that can help pay Part A and Part B premiums, deductibles, and cost-sharing. In addition, if you qualify for an MSP in FL, you are automatically enrolled in the federal Extra Help program which reduces Part D drug costs. Therefore, contact your local Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) office or call SHINE at 1-800-963-5337 to apply.
Yes โ€” Florida is one of the top states for Medicare Advantage OTC benefits. Many Florida plans include a monthly Over-the-Counter (OTC) benefit allowance ranging from $50 to $200+ per month that you can use to purchase approved vitamins, supplements, and health products at participating retailers like CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart. However, the allowance varies significantly by plan and county. Therefore, use our free comparison tool to find which Florida plans in your ZIP code offer the highest OTC allowance.
