WHAT MEDICARE WON’T DO FOR YOU
The government-provided health insurance policy known as
Medicare gives Americans over 65 a certain level of coverage,
but it certainly does not cover all costs. For instance, Medicare
does not provide coverage for dental care, which poses a
potential problem for seniors with dentures. Nor does Medicare
cover vision care, whether it is a matter of routine eye exams or
providing eyeglasses/contact lenses. As far as long-term care is
concerned, Medicare does not cover custodial care (including
daily living assistance) either in an assisted-living facility or at
home. However, it may pay for certain items that are deemed to
be medically necessary. To fill in any coverage gaps, seniors
must turn to “Medigap” coverage, provided from private
insurers.

health insurance products. For all your insurance questions call
