How did you decide on the gap plan? Did the medicare website have enough detailed info to decide, or did you have to also visit the site of each insurance company? Maybe I haven't dug deeply enough yet.

I'm inclined to go with trad med, even tho it seems more expensive up front, but i just can't decide.

Thanks for the tips about who to contact
