Navigating Medicare can be confusing, but it doesn't have to be a shocking experience. Medicare Advantage plans can carry hidden risks, especially for people with major health issues. Some people in Medicare Advantage may end up paying unexpectedly high costs when they become ill or find that their network lacks the providers they need.

Medicare Advantage plans may be especially problematic for people in rural areas. Open enrollment is October 15th through December 7th.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women—but when it’s found early, survival improves dramatically. That’s why Lung Cancer Awareness Month is a perfect time to learn whether a Low-Dose CT (LDCT) lung screening at Nemaha Valley Community Hospital could be right for you or someone you love.

👉What is LDCT?
LDCT is a fast, painless scan that uses a much lower dose of radiation than a standard CT. There are no needles, no dyes, and no special prep for most people. The scan itself typically takes under 10 minutes, and results are read by our radiology team with your provider.

👉Who should be screened?
Current national guidelines recommend yearly LDCT screening for adults who are at higher risk for lung cancer. You may qualify if you meet all of the following:
Age: 50–80 years old (Medicare generally covers ages 50–77)
Smoking history: At least 20 “pack-years” (for example, 1 pack/day for 20 years or 2 packs/day for 10 years)
Current smoker or quit within the last 15 years
No symptoms of lung cancer (screening is for people without symptoms)

Coverage varies by insurer; our team can help you understand benefits and costs.

👉Why it matters
Most lung cancers don’t cause noticeable symptoms until they are advanced. LDCT can find lung nodules when they’re small and more treatable. National studies show LDCT screening in eligible people reduces the risk of dying from lung cancer.

👉Take the next step
Ask your provider if LDCT lung screening is right for you, or call Seneca Family Practice at 785-336-6107 to schedule a conversation about eligibility. Our team will help with insurance questions and make the process easy.

Today on 💙World Diabetes Day💙, Nemaha Valley Community Hospital’s own Becky Bartkoski, RN, BSN and Diabetes Educator spent time with a great group of young students from Axtell Public School talking about Diabetes.

Becky helped the students learn what diabetes is, what signs and symptoms to watch for, and how they can support friends or classmates who are living with it.

We’re grateful for opportunities like this to partner with our local schools and empower kids with knowledge that can make a real difference in someone’s life.

Thank you, Becky, for sharing your expertise and compassion with our community—and thank you, Axtell, for having us!

Making sense of Medicare can feel like a maze, but you don't have to get lost. Let us help you navigate your Medicare options! 🗺️

With Original Medicare you can see any provider who accepts Medicare, which is most. However, Medicare Advantage plans typically require that you get care from a more limited network of providers, and in most cases, you will need a pre-authorization from the insurance payer to see specialists, receive Part B drugs, get skilled nursing facility stays or inpatient hospital stays, receive mental health services or receive diagnostic services such as procedures, labs, tests, therapy, dialysis, hearing, eye exams, dental care and many other services.
