Champva Supplemental Insurance

[otey2171]

Is Champva supplemental insurance worth purchasing? Does anyone have a list of insurance companies that sell supplemental insurance for champva?

I was awarded permanent and total yesterday and don't have a clue about champva.

Thanks trunks and welcome to Hadit. My wife has ChampVA and Medicare so ChampVA acts like the supplement except on prescriptions. I have not figured if Medicae Part D and ChampVA work together.

Pete I've been reading about champva coverage.Champva and medicare part D do work together. After the $250 deductable has been met with medicare part D then meds are 100% covered until the medicare $2500.00 limit is reached.

Trucks I understand champva, my question is there supplemental insurance for champva. There are many companies that provide supplemental insurance for Tricare. Champva's web site speaks about supplemental insurance for champva but doesn't list any names. The supplemental insurance pays for deductibles and copays that champva doesn't.
