Our Medicare Plans for Vermonters

Experience the Benefits of Blue^SM

If you are joining Medicare for the first time or already a Medicare member, you have plan options available to you. We can support you in making the right decision to meet your needs. Blue Cross VT and its affiliates offer a variety of Medicare plan options, including:

• Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans that work in tandem with Original Medicare to help reduce your out-of-pocket costs and that may fill the gaps in Medicare Part A & Part B services.
• Medicare Prescription Drug plans that cover prescriptions not included in Original Medicare. If you have Original Medicare or a Medicare Supplement plan, our Blue MedicareRx^SM plans can meet your prescription drug coverage needs.

We will not offer Medicare Advantage plans in Vermont for 2026. To learn more about this change, visit vermontblueadvantage.com.
