With June 6th recognized as Visually Impaired People Day, now is a good time to discuss how Medicare approaches vision care.

Original Medicare (also known as Medicare Parts A and B) is designed primarily as medical insurance. That means coverage typically applies to the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions affecting the eyes, rather than to routine vision care. However, Medicare Advantage plans usually do include coverage for routine eye exams.

Swipe for a brief overview of what Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans cover when it comes to vision care and eye health.

If you’d ever like to review how your current Medicare coverage addresses vision care, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team. We are always here to be a resource for you.

June is Men's Health Month, and there is no better time to encourage you or the men in your life to take advantage of preventive screenings included with their health care coverage. Preventive screenings are among the most powerful tools for early detection of serious illnesses, and catching something early can make all the difference.

Here are some key screenings and wellness checks worth knowing about and at what age they start:

✅ Cholesterol checks - These key preventive screenings should start at 17 to monitor heart health and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. They’re recommended every four to six years.
✅ Diabetes screening - Diabetes screenings are recommended to begin at age 35 and every three years after, or earlier if risk factors are present, such as family history or being overweight.
✅ Prostate cancer screening - Men should start receiving regular prostate cancer screenings with their doctor, typically starting around age 50, or earlier for those with higher risk factors.
✅ Colorectal cancer screening - For men, a colonoscopy is recommended starting at age 45 for those with average risk and should be repeated every 10 years. The frequency of screening may increase based on your doctor’s assessment of your risk level.
✅ General mental health screening - These screenings are often conducted at annual checkups, at any age. They are a good time to speak openly with your provider about anxiety, depression, or any changes in your mood.

Every man's health journey looks different, so it’s best to talk with your doctor about which screenings are right for your age, history, and lifestyle.

Have questions about what your health coverage includes? Give us a call. We are here to help you make the most of your benefits.
