Mutual of Omaha Medicare Supplemental Insurance

Only problem and all insurances do it. I can never get a COLA or pay raise from social security because the monthly premium increases more than raise every year as well medicare part B premium and deductible increases. I usually lose $20.00 yearly. Retired eight years. Had one year social security increase by One dollar, other years have been losses.

I have had the Part G policy for 3 yrs and my husband for 4 years. We have had zero problems. We also have their part D and I have been really happy with it but now I need one med they don’t cover. I dread switching. I have a lot of health issues and surgeries and my husband had a hip replacement so we use it a lot. I was not happy with the previous company (Humana) that my husband used. This one is much better. I do have to keep an eye on physicians since they love to charge for the $190 deductible even when I tell them it has been met. Eventually they refund it but I don’t like that. It is expensive but all the part G plans cost a lot. We may have to go to an Advantage plan eventually since we pay about $450 a month for both of us. That's almost half of my husband's social security check.

Updated on 10/24/2020: I submitted a similar review recently but just received my notification of a 15% premium increase for 2021 on top of a 25% increase last year. This is unconscionable! State insurance regulators apparently let them self-regulate by simply rubber stamping rate requests. I have read that MO would be an unprofitable company were it not for the Medicare supplement business. To the MO responder to these complaints: forget the redundant boilerplate response you have given to every critique about the high premium increases. Your unsympathetic and rote response only adds insult to injury!

We purchased a "lump sum cancer" insurance policy and a "Heart attack/stroke policy" from Mutual of Omaha as a supplement to our health insurance. We thought we could trust Mutual of Omaha. Unfortunately, I was diagnosed with oral cancer in February and had urgent surgery. We filed a claim under the "lump sum cancer" policy. Mutual of Omaha is stalling, and dragging their feet with unreasonable request and demands. They are completely ignoring the policy and agreement we made. 6 months later and they have not paid. Today I had to hire an attorney to pursue the claim. Very disappointing. I also canceled the "Heart attack/stroke" policy. Not worth it!

Mutual of Omaha claims representative was very rude and not helpful at all. I made the mistake of paying deductible at very first doctor visit for the new year. She told me I had to call each doctor & straighten out myself. I am semi retired & had a lifetime of experience in accounting and customer service. She failed on both. Plus I am a new customer with Mutual of Omaha. Now I am having trouble with refunds on script side that was back ordered. So in my mind this company is difficult to work with.

I am now paying $395 a month for a Medigap policy from Mutual, and I joined their drug plan which has a high deductible of $435 before they would pay for my medications. Then they changed my eye drops for glaucoma, which I have had for 30 yrs, to higher tier, and told me I had to take the new generic version of the med I was on, I did and had a bad reaction from it and my doctor put me back on the original med. after calling the drug plan. Instead of me paying $25 co-pay as described in my plan when I signed up I have to pay $91 per month for this med. Totally disgusted with mutual. Stay away from them.

This company is insane. Rates are unbearable. Since I took this 4 years ago rates have raised 25.00 a year and this year 50.00. When I took this I was told there might be periodic rate increases from time to time. Heck every year and huge. Will find another company!!!! 125.00 increase in 4 years. Retired people cannot afford them or want to. That means in 10 years it will be 800 to a 1000. Most of people’s checks. I can pay the left over myself by then!!!! Others I know say the same thing.

Updated on 04/15/2020: Ok back in February I complained cause I got several different quotes on my insulin’s so I filed a complaint. About the first week in March I received a call from a rep from the corporate office in Ohio. She told me that I would be getting a check for 630 & change as a refund. Also I had received a check for about 10 $ which I got both checks. Everything was fine until the first week in April when I received a statement that I owed about 415 dollars. Does anyone in this company have a clue about math? It would seem to me that someone from corporate would be of how the billing works.

I've had Plan F for 8 years from MOO and always paid for a full year in advance. For years I would get the same song and dance letter about I was getting older and due to other costs my premium was going up usually $300. to $400 a year. Last year my premium was $2760. and I almost went into shock when my premium notice came this year almost doubling the premium over $4,400. That's like $375. a month for insurance that only covers 20% and some small deductibles. At the same time I went with MOO I recommended a friend to take it. They did the same thing to her this year. I had moved from Wisc to Maryland, but she had been a lifetime Maryland resident and MOO almost doubled hers also.

My wife and I have had Plan G for two years. Premiums for 2020 are going up almost 20.4%. They went up 12.8% last year. Health care is expensive and there is always some inflation. However, we paid over $3,000 in premiums for 2019 and MOO paid $845 totally for the both of us. That's some profit margin!
