Q&A with Eric Feltner
Is Medicare's coverage for cataract surgery enough, or do seniors still face high out-of-pocket costs?
Answer: Cataract Surgery is normally covered as an Outpatient Surgery under Medicare Part B. This means Medicare will pay 80% of the costs while the member will be responsible for the remaining 20% after you have met the annual Part B deductible. The Part B deductible for 2026 is $283.
However, if a Medicare member enrolls in a Medicare Supplement most, if not all, of the 20% cost would be covered after you meet the Part B deductible.
In addition, a Medicare member has the option to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan which usually has a set copay for an Outpatient Surgery which could be lower than the 20% Medicare does not cover. Also, many Medicare Advantage plans have no medical deductible so you do not have to pay the $283 Part B deductible.
Do I really need help in figuring out what's best for me as for as Medicare Planning?
Answer: I always advise Medicare members to review their plan each year to make sure it is still the best plan for the coming year. Plans change every year, whether it be plan benefits, providers who accept your plan, or changes in prescription drug coverage. Speaking with an experienced agent is the best way to review your plan changes and compare other plans available in your area. I am happy to help guide you through this process.
