The Plan That Splits the Part A Deductible: Medicare Supplement Plan M in 2026
A Specific Trade for a Specific Person
Plan M doesn’t get much attention, mostly because its trade-off is narrow: half the Part A deductible covered, none of the Part B deductible, full coverage on the rest.
Wondering if a partial deductible split actually saves you money? See if Plan M fits your situation
What Makes Plan M Different
Plan M covers Part A coinsurance, the extra 365 hospital days, Part B coinsurance, skilled nursing coinsurance, foreign travel emergency care, and 50% of the Part A deductible. It does not touch the Part B deductible at all.
Best fit: retirees who rarely face Part B deductible costs but want a buffer on the larger Part A deductible.

The Bottom Line
Plan M is a narrow tool for a specific situation. When that situation matches yours, it’s worth a real look, not a guess.
