Medicare Tip For Today

Chiropractic services
Medicare covers manipulation of the spine
by a chiropractor or other qualified provider if
medically necessary to correct a subluxation (when one
or more of the bones of your spine move out of position).
You pay 20% of the Medicare-approved amount. The
Part B deductible applies.

Note: Medicare doesn’t cover other services or tests
a chiropractor orders, including X-rays, massage
therapy, and acupuncture (except for low back pain).
If you think your chiropractor is billing for services that
Medicare doesn’t cover, call 1 800 633 - 4227 to report
the suspected Medicare fraud. TTY users can call
1 877 486 - 2048.

Medicare Tip for Today

Colonoscopies: Medicare covers this test once every
120 months (or every 24 months if you’re high risk) or
48 months after a previous flexible sigmoidoscopy.
There’s no minimum age requirement. You pay nothing
for the test if your doctor or other qualified health care
provider accepts assignment.
Note: If your doctor finds and removes a polyp or
other tissue during the colonoscopy, you may pay 20%
of the Medicare-approved amount for your doctors’
services and a copayment in a hospital outpatient
setting. The Part B deductible doesn’t apply.
