Medicare supplement policies must provide a 'free look' period of:

  1. 15 days

  2. 25 days

  3. 30 days

  4. 20 days

The correct answer is: 30 days

Medicare supplement policies are designed to help cover the gaps in coverage provided by Medicare, and they include specific consumer protections, one of which is the 'free look' period. This period allows new policyholders to review their policy after purchase and decide if they want to keep it or return it for a full refund. The correct answer indicates that this 'free look' period is 30 days. This duration is intended to provide adequate time for policyholders to assess their policy's benefits, ensure it meets their needs, and consult with family or financial advisors. This consumer-friendly approach helps protect individuals from making hasty decisions and encourages informed choices regarding their healthcare coverage. In terms of the context of the other options, the durations offered (15 days, 20 days, and 25 days) do not align with the regulations set forth for Medicare supplement insurance, which firmly establishes the requirement at 30 days. This standardization across policies helps ensure that all consumers receive fair treatment in analyzing their insurance choices.
