Take advantage of Medicare’s preventive services

Did you know? Medicare gives you access to a variety of preventive tests and screenings, most at no cost to you. For example, Medicare covers screenings for diabetes, osteoporosis, heart disease, and more. If you have Original Medicare (Part A and/or Part B), sign in to your MyMedicare.gov account to see your personalized calendar of current and upcoming preventive services. Don’t have an account yet? Sign up for free at MyMedicare.gov. Go to MyMedicare If you’re in a Medicare Advantage (MA) Plan, contact your plan for a list of covered preventive services. MA Plans must cover all the same preventive services as Original Medicare, and some may offer additional services. Preventive care can prevent you from getting sick — and detect health problems early, when treatment works best. Take advantage of these services as a proactive step in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Sincerely, The Medicare Team
