ACE Medicare Supplement Plans 2027: Chubb's ACE and INA Policies, Ratings and Real Rates

Reviewed by Russell Noga, Licensed Medicare Insurance Broker (all 50 states) — Last updated October 29, 2026

ACE Medicare Supplement plans are sold by Chubb, the global insurer rated A++ (Superior) by AM Best, and are issued by ACE Property and Casualty Insurance Company or, in some states, Insurance Company of North America (INA). Chubb offers Plans A, F, G, High-Deductible G and N, with no pre-existing condition waiting period.

“ACE” is not a small regional insurer. It is the name Chubb uses on its Medicare Supplement plans, and Chubb operates in 54 countries and territories. In some states the very same kind of policy shows up under a second Chubb company, Insurance Company of North America, so people searching for ACE often find INA on their quote instead.

Below we sort out the two names, show what Chubb’s policy cost in a state that publishes every company’s rate, and answer the questions people actually type in about ACE. To see how Plan G and Plan N differ before you compare companies, read our Plan G vs Plan N 2027 guide.

ACE or INA: Two Chubb Names, One Type of Policy

The name on your application depends on your state, not on the plan you pick. Either way, the benefits for each plan letter follow the same federal rules.

ACE Property and Casualty Insurance Company. The underwriter named in Chubb’s ACE Medicare Supplement consumer brochure.

Insurance Company of North America. The Chubb company the Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota and New Jersey state lists show as the seller in those states.

Same parent, same rating group. Both are U.S. members of the Chubb group AM Best rated A++ (Superior) in January 2026.

Shown as “INA” on rate charts. If a state chart lists INA and not ACE, you are still looking at Chubb’s Medicare Supplement.

From Independence Hall to Chubb: The INA Story

INA may be the oldest name you will ever see on a Medicare Supplement quote. Chubb’s own history page lays out the path.

Year Event
1792 Investors meet at Independence Hall in Philadelphia and organize the Insurance Company of North America.
1982 INA Corporation merges with Connecticut General to form CIGNA.
1999 ACE buys CIGNA’s property and casualty business, including INA, for $3.45 billion.
2016 ACE and Chubb combine and take the Chubb name.

Source: Chubb, Our History.

Not the same as Cigna today: INA left CIGNA in 1999. It has no tie to the former Cigna Medicare Supplement plans, which are now sold as HealthSpring Medicare Supplement plans.

Chubb's INA Rates in Maine's Medicare Supplement Table

ACE Medicare Supplement Plan G 2027: INA yearly rate in Maine compared with other companies

Maine’s Bureau of Insurance posts a yearly rate for every company and plan, split by smoker status. That makes it easy to see where Chubb’s INA policy lands. These are the current non-smoker rates on the table, which also shows the 2026 Part B deductible.

INA plan (Maine) Yearly rate, non-smoker About per month
Plan G $3,790 $316
Plan N $2,644 $220
High-Deductible Plan G $1,077 $90
Plan A $3,752 $313

Source: Maine Bureau of Insurance, Medicare Supplement Annual Rates (2026 table). Monthly figures are our division by 12.

Across 14 companies on Maine’s table, non-smoker Plan G ran from $2,999 to $5,554 a year, and INA sat near the middle. INA’s Plan N was the 4th lowest of 13. Its Plan G cost $1,146 more a year than its Plan N, the price of avoiding Plan N’s copays and excess charges. Live in Maine? Our Maine Medicare Supplement guide covers the state’s own rules.

No Pre-Existing Condition Waiting Period

Federal rules let a Medicare Supplement company delay coverage of a pre-existing condition for up to six months if you did not have at least six months of prior creditable coverage. Chubb does not use that option.

ACE brochure. States: “There are no pre-existing condition limitations.”

Maine’s table. Lists INA’s pre-existing exclusion period as “None,” while other companies on the same table list 60 days or 6 months.

Why it matters. If you are approved, a condition you already have is covered from day one.

Note: No waiting period is not the same as no health questions. Outside open enrollment or a guaranteed issue right, Chubb can still review your health and decline the application.

"ACE Supplemental Insurance" vs ACE Medicare Supplement

People often search for “ACE supplemental insurance” or just “ACE supplement.” Chubb sells personal accident and supplemental health coverage too, and those are different products. A Medicare Supplement plan pays your share of Medicare-approved bills. Accident or hospital plans pay you set cash amounts and do not replace a Medicare Supplement.

1

Confirm the product. The quote should say Medicare Supplement and show a plan letter such as G or N.

2

Check the issuing company. ACE Property and Casualty or Insurance Company of North America, depending on your state.

3

Ask about the household discount. It is 7% for INA in Maryland. Ask for the amount and rules in your state.

4

Compare two or three other companies. Same letter, same benefits. Weigh price and rate history.

Bottom Line

ACE Medicare Supplement is Chubb’s product, issued by ACE Property and Casualty or INA and backed by the top A++ AM Best rating. It has no pre-existing condition waiting period, and in Maine’s table its Plan N priced well. Compare your 2027 ACE or INA rate against other companies in your ZIP code before you apply.
