Fred Manas · Answer

Medicare Part B covers many preventive screenings and tests at no cost.
Many other screenings are covered with no copay or deductible.
Medicare also covers the Annual Wellness Visit (AWV).
However, you may need to pay a share of the cost for some screenings or diagnostic tests, and for any follow-up care needed as a result of a screening.

William Scott · Answer

IF you are in the correct Medicare supplement or Medicare Advantage plan then most of these screenings will be covered. Make sure you check with your agent before setting those up.

Rene Apack · Answer

Your doctor knows the answer to that question.

Medicare will only pay if it is MEDICALLY NECESSARY.

There are preventive screenings that your doctor may order during your annual physical, and they would be free.

Edward Wooten · Answer

Your part B covers many preventative services. Medicare may cover some services and tests more often if those services are needed to diagnose or treat a condition. Majority of services are covered if administered by a doctor or other qualified health care provider that accepts your plan, however, you could be responsible for your deductible.
