Enroll in Medicare Supplement Plan G at 67: Eligibility, Rates, and Next Steps

Enrolling in Medicare Supplement Plan G at 67 is absolutely possible, but the rules are different than they were at 65. You've missed your Medigap Open Enrollment Period, which means carriers can now ask health questions before they accept you.
That doesn't mean you're out of luck. It just means you need the right approach. I'm Anthony Orner, and I help people in exactly this situation every week.

Your federal Medigap Open Enrollment Period is a one-time, 6-month window that starts the month you turn 65 and have Part B. At 67, that window has closed.
However, you may still qualify for guaranteed issue rights if one of these applies:
- You're losing employer or union group health coverage
- You left a Medicare Advantage plan within the first 12 months
- Your Medigap carrier went bankrupt or violated its contract
- You moved out of your plan's service area
If none of those apply, you'll go through medical underwriting. Rules also vary by state, so call to confirm your specific situation.
What Plan G costs at 67 vs. enrolling earlier
Most carriers use attained-age pricing. That means your premium goes up as you get older. Someone who enrolled Plan G at 65 locked in a lower starting rate. At 67, your starting premium will be higher simply because of your age.
But here's what people really miss: the starting premium isn't the whole story. Block rate increases can stack on top of age increases, producing 10-18% jumps in a single year. Picking the right carrier with stable long-term rate behavior matters far more than chasing the cheapest price today.
Medical underwriting at 67: what carriers look for
Outside of guaranteed issue, carriers will ask about your health history. Common disqualifiers include recent cancer treatment, insulin-dependent diabetes, COPD requiring oxygen, and certain heart conditions.
Managed blood pressure or cholesterol meds? That usually isn't a problem. Every carrier draws its own lines, which is exactly why working with a broker who knows each company's underwriting guidelines saves you from wasting applications and getting unnecessary denials on your record.
Why Plan G is still worth it at 67
Plan G covers everything Original Medicare doesn't except the Part B deductible ($283/year in 2026). That means no copays for doctor visits, no surprise bills after surgery, and no daily cost for skilled nursing days 21-100 (otherwise $209.50/day).
You also keep full freedom to see any doctor in the country who accepts Medicare. No networks. No referrals.
Don't forget Part D
Plan G does not include prescription drug coverage. You'll need a standalone Part D plan alongside it. If you delayed Part D past your initial enrollment and didn't have creditable drug coverage, you could face a late enrollment penalty. Let's check that when we talk.
