Original Medicare doesn’t provide coverage for dental, vision, hearing care or fitness. But they aren’t left out completely: in order to have added health and wellness, most Medicare Advantage plans cover these items as part of their benefits packages.
And speaking of benefits, plans are always focusing on expanding the perks they offer that Original Medicare does not. Depending on your needs, you will find plans that provide total health and wellness packages, in-home medical visits, transportation to medical appointments, coordinated care, virtual telehealth doctor visits and more. If you’re curious to find more about it, just check with Medicare’s website.
