Can I Cancel a Medigap Policy?You may run into problems if you try to buy a Medigap policy outside a protected enrollment period (see When Are the Protected Times to Buy a Medigap?). For instance, companies can refuse to sell you one or impose certain medical requirements. If a company does agree to sell you a policy, you may need to pay a higher monthly premium and be subject to a six-month waiting period before the Medigap will cover pre-existing conditions. Be sure to contact Medigap insurers in your state to learn if they will sell you a Medigap policy outside protected enrollment periods.
