Medicare Supplement Planning in South Venice
South Venice is one of the oldest communities in Florida by age: nearly half of its residents are 65 or older. It lies just south of the City of Venice, a quiet area of canal-front homes and older neighborhoods where most people chose to retire.
With so many residents already on Medicare, the question here is often whether an existing Medigap plan is still competitively priced. The state’s rate filings for this region show a median Plan G premium of $243 a month for a 65-year-old woman and $264 for a man, but quotes for the same Plan G range from $201 to $344, and premiums rise with age at most companies.
Medigap Rates in South Venice by Age
Median monthly premiums for a non-smoker in ZIP 34293 (Sarasota County), from the rates insurers filed with the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation for policies effective November 1, 2026. Every company’s Plan G pays the same benefits, so price and rate history are what you are really comparing.
| Age | Plan G women | Plan G men | Plan N women | Plan N men | High-Deductible G women |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 65 | $243 | $264 | $187 | $206 | $83 |
| 70 | $269 | $293 | $204 | $230 | $88 |
| 75 | $305 | $330 | $236 | $261 | $104 |
| 80 | $337 | $368 | $263 | $293 | $120 |
Plan G or Plan N at 65 in South Venice?
Here, Plan N’s median premium is about $672 a year lower than Plan G’s for a 65-year-old woman and about $696 lower for a man. Plan N’s main extra cost is a copay of up to $20 at some office visits (and up to $50 at the emergency room), so on premiums alone Plan N comes out ahead unless you expect more than about 33 copay visits a year. Plan N also does not cover Part B excess charges, which some Florida doctors bill.
Why the company you pick matters
For a 65-year-old woman in this ZIP code, filed Plan G rates run from $201 to $344 a month for identical benefits, a gap of about 71%. Your exact rate also depends on your birthday, tobacco use and any household discount.

Medicare Supplement Plans in South Venice, Florida
South Venice is an established residential community in southern Sarasota County where many retirees enjoy a quieter Gulf Coast lifestyle with convenient access to healthcare, shopping, parks, and nearby beaches.

Medigap plans are standardized by letter, so a Plan G in South Venice has exactly the same benefits as a Plan G anywhere else in the country.

Why South Venice Residents Rely on Medigap
There is no hospital in South Venice itself. Sarasota Memorial Hospital’s Venice campus is about six miles away, HCA Florida Englewood Hospital is about eight and a half, and the larger Sarasota hospitals are close to 18 miles north. When a specialist or surgery takes you farther afield, a Medigap plan pays the same as it would close to home, because it works with any provider that accepts Original Medicare.
For an older population, rehab coverage matters too. Plans G and N pay the skilled nursing coinsurance of $217 a day from day 21 through day 100 after a qualifying hospital stay, along with the $1,736 Part A deductible. PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Venice in Nokomis and six Medicare-certified nursing homes are within about six miles.
