Part A: Hospital Insurance

Medicare Part A provides coverage for inpatient hospital care and certain other services. Here's an overview of what Medicare Part A covers:

REQUEST A CALL

Hospital Stays:

Part A covers inpatient hospital stays, including semi-private rooms, meals, general nursing, and other hospital services and supplies.

Skilled Nursing Facility Care:

Coverage includes skilled nursing facility care following a hospital stay of at least three days, if the individual needs skilled nursing care.

Hospice Care:

Part A covers hospice care for individuals with a terminal illness, including pain relief and symptom management.

Home Health Care:

Limited coverage for medically necessary part-time or intermittent skilled nursing care and home health aide services.
It's important to note that while Part A covers many inpatient services, it does not cover all healthcare costs. There may be deductibles, copayments, or coinsurance that individuals are responsible for, depending on the specific services received. Additionally, coverage under Part A is usually automatic for individuals who qualify based on age or disability and are enrolled in Medicare Part B.
