I don't know which insurance company you are using but with AARP/UHC it was about $30 a month lower cost with Plan G. Since the only difference between Plan F and Plan G is that Plan F includes the Part B annual deductible, Plan G makes more sense. With Plan F, you are paying about $360 extra per year to save the $226 annual deductible. You may want to also look at Plan N, which is typically another $30 per month lower cost but may include some co-pays and excess charges (not really an issue almost all of the time). With AARP/UHC, you can switch between the lettered plans whenever you want without needing underwriting.

Has anyone done this, and, if so, what was the savings on the annual premium cost? I am trying to decide if it is worth it because as I understand it, once you give up Plan F, you can’t get it back — even if you were among the group that was grandfathered in when they stopped it for new enrollees
