Medicare News

Many people are surprised to learn that Original Medicare (Parts A and B) does not cover routine dental, vision, or hearing care. These are essential services for healthy aging — and at Hamilton Insurance, we help Brooksville residents find plans that fill those important gaps.

What’s NOT Covered by Original Medicare?

Original Medicare does not cover:

• Routine dental cleanings, exams, or dentures

• Eye exams for glasses or contacts

• Hearing exams or hearing aids

This means that unless you have supplemental coverage, you’ll pay 100% out of pocket for these services — and that can get expensive quickly.

How Can You Get Dental, Vision, and Hearing Coverage?

There are two main ways to get this extra coverage:

1. Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C):
   Many Advantage plans include comprehensive dental, vision, and hearing benefits as part of the package. Coverage varies, but it often includes:

   • Two dental cleanings per year

   • Eye exams and an allowance for glasses or contacts

   • Hearing exams and discounts or full coverage for hearing aids

2. Standalone Insurance Plans:
   You can also enroll in separate dental, vision, and hearing plans to pair with Original Medicare. These offer flexibility and are often budget-friendly.

At Hamilton Insurance, we compare both options to find what works best for your specific needs and budget.

Why It Matters

Oral health, clear vision, and good hearing all directly impact your quality of life, independence, and overall health. Neglecting these areas due to lack of coverage can lead to more serious health problems — which means more costs down the road.
