Tips for Making the Most Out of Medicare Part B
Making the most of your Medicare Part B coverage requires understanding what is covered and how to use it effectively. Here are some quick tips to help you maximize your benefits:
- Schedule your annual wellness visit – Medicare Part B covers annual wellness visits which can help identify potential health issues early on. Be sure to schedule these visits and take advantage of the opportunity to discuss any concerns or questions you have about your health.
- Take advantage of preventive services – Medicare Part B covers a wide range of preventive services at no cost to you. Get your cancer and diabetes screenings!
- Understand your out-of-pocket costs – Remember that you’ll always have a monthly premium and you will likely pay a deductible. Be sure to understand what your copays are and how to budget for them. If you’re not sure whether a service is covered – ask!
- Shop around for healthcare services – Healthcare services can vary in cost depending on where you go. Do some research and shop around to find the best prices for medical treatments, procedures, and prescriptions.
- Consider supplemental insurance – Many people opt to purchase supplemental insurance plans to help with coverage gaps.
