Hi, a really good friend of mine has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I am not sure how limited her treatment will be (if at all) b/c of her insurance. She has medicare and I have been researching medigap options. Can anyone give me advise on the type of extended insurance I should be looking into to allow my friend to go to any doctor and not be limited by medicare coverage?

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated...

thank you
