What affects the price

Medicare costs aren't one-size-fits-all. Your monthly premium depends on a few moving parts, such as the specific plan type you choose, your zip code, and your current health needs. Whether you need extra coverage for prescriptions or prefer a plan that includes dental and vision benefits, these choices shift the total amount you pay. Some people find plans with low monthly premiums, while others prioritize lower out-of-pocket costs when they visit a doctor. Because your personal situation dictates which options are available and affordable, we help you weigh these factors carefully. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in Durham

Is Medicare free after 65?

While Medicare Part A, which covers hospital stays, is often premium-free for those who have paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years, other parts of Medicare typically have monthly premiums. Medicare Part B for medical services and Part D for prescription drugs usually involve monthly costs. Your specific situation in Durham will determine your exact expenses.

What is Medicare and what does it do?

Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people aged 65 and older, and also for younger individuals with specific disabilities or End-Stage Renal Disease. It helps cover costs for various healthcare services, including doctor visits, hospital stays, and certain medical equipment. For home health care, it can cover skilled nursing, therapy, and other medically necessary services.

What are the 6 things Medicare doesn't cover?

Medicare generally does not cover long-term custodial care, cosmetic surgery, most dental care, routine eye exams for eyeglasses, hearing aids, and routine foot care. It's designed to cover medically necessary treatments and services. For home health care in Durham, coverage typically extends to skilled nursing and rehabilitation services when prescribed by a doctor.

What are the three requirements for Medicare?

To be eligible for Medicare, you generally must be a U.S. citizen or have been a legal resident for at least five years and be 65 or older. You may also qualify if you are under 65 and have a disability, or have End-Stage Renal Disease. Having a sufficient work history where Medicare taxes were paid is also a common requirement.

How much will Medicare cost me each month?

Your monthly Medicare costs will depend on the parts of Medicare you enroll in and your income. Part A is often free, but Part B has a standard monthly premium that can be higher for individuals with higher incomes. Prescription drug plans also have their own premiums.
