What Medicare Advantage Beneficiaries Need to Know About COVID-19
If your doctor decides you need a test for COVID-19, Medicare Advantage covers the cost. Additionally, some Medicare Advantage plans are offering free COVID-19 treatment and $0 telemedicine visits during this national emergency. Contact your Medicare Advantage plan with any questions about your coverage, and reach out to your provider if you have health concerns during this time.
The Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a virus that impacts the respiratory system. While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urges all Americans to practice social distancing, wash hands frequently, and practice other safety measures during this time, older adults and those with chronic conditions should take added precautions because they are at higher risk of complications from COVID-19 illness.
