Supplemental costs vary by age, sex, smoking history, the company, where you live, the plan (F, G, N, etc.), and whether you switched to an Advantage Plan and then switched back in less than a year. Prescription drug plans vary and can be as low as $0 per month. The numbers you presented are ballpark.

It seems that the most you pay with Medicare supplement would be about $2700 a year. But you pay that every year-whether you go to your primary care doctor once a year or if you have open heart surgery and chemotherapy the same year.
At this point I am paying less than $500 a year. I assume that will go up as I get older. But until then I am saving about $2000 a year.
