Health Insurance Coverage for Bariatric Surgery?

Insurance coverage of this procedure varies, but more and more insurance providers are covering a sizable portion of the cost, while some policies offer full coverage for the surgery.

What you Should Know About Medicare Health Insurance?
Over 40 million Americans are covered by Medicare, the largest health insurance in the US. If you are 65 years and older or if you are younger with certain disabilities, you may be eligible for Medicare health insurance. However, if you have end stage renal disease which involves permanent kidney failure and require a kidney transplant or dialysis treatment, you may qualify for health insurance covered by Medicare, regardless of your age. The Medicare health plan covers two main areas, Hospital Insurance which is Part A and Medical Insurance, known as Part B. Both Medicare Parts are referred to as the Original Medicare Insurance and while most people who worked and contributed to Medicare taxes do not pay for Part A, the majority of persons covered by Medicare pay a monthly fee for the Part B. Hospital Insurance helps to provide coverage for part-time skilled nursing facilities, hospice and home health care services. Hospital inpatient care is also included, which involves hospitals that provide long-term care, critical access and rehabilitation facilities. Medical Insurance helps with the coverage for outpatient care and treatment by doctors as well as some preventative services. Once the services are covered by Medicare, Part B will pay 80% of the approved amount. Other health insurance programs covered by Medicare are managed by Medicare approved private companies. They are Part C, also called Medicare Advantage and Part D, which is Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage. Both of these plans include Parts A and B along with other benefits and for Part C, payment of a monthly premium is required. As a Medicare beneficiary, you have two choices of how you can get the senior health insurance. One method is to start with Part A and B (Original Medicare) and add Part D (Prescription Drug Coverage) as well as a Supplemental Coverage such as Medigap. The other choice is to start with Medicare Advantage (Part C) and then add the Prescription Drug Coverage (Part D). However, you would not be able to add a Supplemental Insurance with this latter choice. If you need clarification or information about Medicare health insurance, contact the Social Security Administration or the medicare.gov website.
What type of health care is not covered by medicare part a?
Here's a summary of Medicare coverage: Part A Hospital Insurance - Most people don't pay a premium for Part A because they or a spouse already paid for it through their payroll taxes while working. Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) helps cover inpatient care in hospitals, including critical access hospitals, and skilled nursing facilities (not custodial or long-term care). It also helps cover hospice care and some home health care. Beneficiaries must meet certain conditions to get these benefits. Part B Medical Insurance - Most people pay a monthly premium for Part B. Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) helps cover doctors' services and outpatient care. It also covers some other medical services that Part A doesn't cover, such as some of the services of physical and occupational therapists, and some home health care. Part B helps pay for these covered services and supplies when they are medically necessary. Prescription Drug Coverage - Most people will pay a monthly premium for this coverage. Starting January 1, 2006, new Medicare prescription drug coverage will be available to everyone with Medicare. Everyone with Medicare can get this coverage that may help lower prescription drug costs and help protect against higher costs in the future. Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage is insurance. Private companies provide the coverage. Beneficiaries choose the drug plan and pay a monthly premium. Like other insurance, if a beneficiary decides not to enroll in a drug plan when they are first eligible, they may pay a penalty if they choose to join later.
