Tips on Tinnitus and Hearing Loss Is a 55+ community right for you? In addition, over-the-counter hearing aids are now available for people with mild to moderate hearing loss. Medicare beneficiaries who have had low back pain for 12 weeks or longer can now receive up to 20 acupuncture treatments per year. Original Medicare (parts A and B) doesn't cover all health care services, including vision, hearing, and dentistry. However, Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans may offer coverage for some of these services. For example, cosmetic breast augmentation isn't covered by Medicare, but reconstructive surgery after a mastectomy is.
Medicare Part B (health insurance) helps cover the cost of medically necessary durable medical equipment if your doctor prescribes it for use in your home. In general, Medicare Part A (also known as hospital insurance) can cover inpatient hospital care, care in nursing homes, care in nursing homes, palliative care, and home health care.
