Original Medicare (Parts A and B) doesn’t cover most dental, vision, and hearing care costs. As Medicare Supplement policies only cover the remainder of what Medicare does, they also don’t help with these expenses. If you choose not to go with a Medicare Advantage plan but want to make sure you have this coverage, you can purchase a dental, vision, and hearing (DVH) plan.
These plans pair with your Medicare coverage – whether or not you also have a Medigap policy. Dental, vision, and hearing coverage are all crucial for seniors. As we age, we are more susceptible to such issues as gum disease, as well as vision and hearing loss.
Lacking coverage for services to treat and prevent these problems can drain your hard-earned savings. Yet, for a small premium price each month, you can receive bundled coverage that will help put your mind at ease.
