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.

About this service

Medicare generally covers skilled care, like nursing or physical therapy, if you are homebound and your doctor orders it. This is different from long-term custodial care, which helps with daily living tasks like bathing or dressing. If you need medical treatment while recovering from an injury or illness at home, this service bridges that gap. Your specific needs determine if you qualify for these benefits. We can help you clarify your coverage during a quick, free call.

Frequently asked in Seattle

What is Medicare and what does it do?

Medicare is the federal health insurance program primarily for individuals 65 and older, and for younger people with certain disabilities or End-Stage Renal Disease. It helps pay for various medical services, including hospital stays, doctor visits, and prescription drugs. For in-home care, Medicare typically covers medically necessary skilled nursing care or therapy, not custodial care.

What are the 6 things Medicare doesn't cover?

Medicare generally excludes long-term custodial care (assistance with daily living activities), most dental care, routine eye exams for glasses, cosmetic surgery, hearing aids, and routine foot care. When considering in-home care, it's important to know that Medicare is not designed to pay for ongoing, non-medical assistance needed for everyday tasks.

What are the three requirements for Medicare?

Eligibility for Medicare usually requires being 65 years or older, having a disability and receiving Social Security disability benefits for 24 months, or having End-Stage Renal Disease. Once eligible, you can enroll during specific periods to access benefits, which may include coverage for medically necessary in-home skilled nursing or therapy services.

How much will Medicare cost me each month?

Most individuals do not pay a premium for Medicare Part A. Part B has a standard monthly premium, which can be higher for those with higher incomes. Part D (prescription drugs) and Medicare Advantage plans also have associated costs. The cost implications for in-home care will depend on your specific Medicare plan and the services it provides.

Does everyone pay $170 for Medicare?

This premium covers services like doctor visits and outpatient care. Coverage for in-home care services under Medicare is determined by medical necessity and plan benefits, not solely by the Part B premium.

Is Medicare free after 65?

Medicare Part A, which covers hospital stays, is typically free for most individuals if they or their spouse paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years. However, Part B, covering doctor visits and outpatient services, requires a monthly premium. The extent to which Medicare covers in-home care services depends on the specific services and your plan's benefits.
