Should Medicare cover dental, vision, and hearing, or would that just make it more expensive for everyone?

A If you want to have these beenfits, A supplement plan does not included dental, hearing, vision.
You would have to purchase a separate plan.
The easliest way to get Dental, Hearing and vision is to have a MAPD.
These benfits are some the extra benefits in an MAPD plan.

But the only way to make it work is to mandate. Everyone have one and that's where the problem comes in because dentists today don't have to take any insurances and you'd have to pretty much make it financially viable for a dentist to take it
Medicare advantage plants offer limited dental vision and hearing already
If you have a Medicare supplement plan, you can purchase them separately that are widely accepted

As an agent, I cannot say that it would be more expensive for everyone without any data. But, if a person takes the time and effort to get cleanings, use electric toothbrush, floss daily, work on periodontal disease and/or get dentures when their natural teeth are no longer good, they can be healthier. Dental disease is a leading indicator of health. If you take better care of your teeth, your health can be better overall, with less expense to you, Medicare and your insurance carrier.
