Not exactly. The Plan F eligibility date cutoff is Jan 1, 2020. If you were eligible for Medicare before that date you can use Plan F.
For the post I was responding to, the person was clearly eligible for Plan F and most likely had Plan F. Those who have Plan F can keep Plan F and those who are eligible for Plan F can switch to Plan F. As I already posted, however, Plan G carries lower cost than Plan F for the same coverage (they differ only by the Part B deductible). Plan G and Plan N differ not only in possible co-pays but also possible (but unlikely) excess charges. The premium difference between Plan G and Plan N is about $30 per month (depends on age, location, and whether you are a smoker). I agree that Plan N can be very cost effective and those who are newly eligible for Medicare, as well as those with Plan G or Plan F already, should take a look at it. I have Plan N.

Look at Plan N $40-60 less a month depending on your age…..yes you have co-pays to dr visit but if you go to the dr 3-4 times a yr you will be saving money, hospital coverage in Plan G and N are the same
