Whether you have a Medicare Supplement or a Medicare Advantage plan, cataract surgery is covered! ๐
๐ฐ What you pay is directly related to which type of plan you have. In 2026, if you have a Plan G (the most popular plan) and have paid your $283 deductible, you wonโt pay anything. If you have a Medicare Advantage plan, it is an outpatient copay, generally ranging from $250 to $450. ๐ต
๐ Remember that Medicare only covers a โmonofocal lensโ which helps to see things from a distance. Reading glasses may still be needed. ๐ Medicare does not cover adding a multifocal lens to improve your vision, which is often mentioned and even encouraged by the attending physician. (At times it may be needed, but other times, it's an โupsellโ). โ ๏ธ
๐ฐ The cost of that lens(es) is entirely your responsibility. They range from a few hundred dollars per eye, to as much as $2500. ๐ต
๐จโโ๏ธ Make sure you are using a surgeon that you can trust, and who clearly has your best interests at heart. โค๏ธ Ask questions, and consider asking for a written summary of the surgeonโs recommendation. ๐
