Is Cataract Surgery Covered by Medicare?
The short answer is yes. Cataract surgery is covered by Medicare, as long as your doctor decides itтАЩs a necessary surgery for your health. Here are some basic factors regarding your Medicare coverage that you should keep in mind prior to your surgery:
Medicare Part A is your hospital insurance. If your cataract surgery will require a hospital stay, you will need to pay your deductible under Part A. Most of the time, though, cataract surgery doesnтАЩt require hospitalization.
Medicare Part B is your medical insurance, which covers medically necessary healthcare services. For cataract surgery, these benefits include your presurgical appointments and outpatient services post surgery. You will pay your Part B deductible for these services.
Once you pay your deductible, youтАЩll receive coverage from Medicare but will still need to pay any copayments.
If you have Medicare Advantage, youтАЩll get all the benefits parts A and B provide*. Check with your particular plan to find out whether youтАЩll receive any extra coverage.
Check any Medicare Supplement Plans you have. These plans may cover some of the cost of your cataract surgery or lower your copayments.
