Do companies have to sell me one of the new standardized Medigap plans that are replacing the old plans?
No, you have no new right to buy one of these plans. However, if you are just signing up for Medicare Part B, or you lost other coverage that would ordinarily entitle you to a Medigap policy without health screening and a new waiting period, then you will be able to choose one of the new policies if the time limit in which you can apply under existing law is close to, or after 6/1/10. See our section Your Rights to Buy a Medigap Policy for more information on when you can buy a policy without a health screening and waiting period.
