A 65-year-old in Pennsylvania can pay anywhere from $137.68 to $295.51 per month for Medicare Supplement Plan G — a $157.83/month spread across 28 carriers for federally identical benefits. Plan N runs $114.51 to $228.18 across 28 carriers. This index publishes the actual filed-rate data so you can see the market before any carrier's marketing does.

Plan G Filed Rates by Age (PA)

Sample: ZIP 19103 (Philadelphia), female, non-tobacco, no household discount. Pennsylvania does not mandate a single pricing method — most PA carriers use attained-age rating (premiums rise as you age), while a minority are issue-age or community-rated. The age differences above reflect each carrier's filed age curve.

Plan N Filed Rates by Age (PA)

Same sample profile as Plan G above.

Household Discounts in PA

Only 5 of 28 PA Plan G carriers offer a household discount, worth 11.1%–20% off the monthly premium. With the discount applied, filed Plan G rates start at $122.39. If you and your spouse are both enrolling, the discount can change which carrier is actually cheapest.

How PA Compares: Lowest Filed Plan G Rate by State (age 65)

Sorted by each state's cheapest filed Plan G rate, one flagship-metro ZIP per state. Pennsylvania is highlighted.

Entry price is only half the story: most PA Medigap carriers use attained-age rating, so the premium climbs as you age on top of general rate increases. Unlike New Jersey — which bars tobacco rate differentials during the Medigap Open Enrollment Period — nearly all PA carriers also file separate tobacco rates, so the carrier ranking shifts for tobacco users. Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Wisconsin standardize Medigap differently and are not included.

Methodology

• Rates are carrier filed rates from CSG Actuarial as of 2026-07-12, not marketing quotes.
• Sample profile: female, non-tobacco, ZIP 19103 (Philadelphia); ages as labeled; household discount excluded except where noted.
• “Spread” is the monthly dollar gap between the cheapest and most expensive filed rate for identical, federally standardized benefits.
• Carrier counts reflect carriers returning a filed quote for this profile; carriers can enter or exit between snapshots.
• The index is refreshed when new filings meaningfully change the data; the as-of date above always reflects the underlying snapshot.
