Download the only official U.S. government Medicare app onto your mobile device. What’s covered helps you understand the health care coverage offered by Original Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) and Part B (Medical Insurance). Use this federal government app to: -Answer your Medicare coverage questions -See information about your costs -Learn about covered items & services -See notes & where to get more information -Browse free preventive services Original Medicare Items & Services Find out what your Medicare coverage has to offer like: - When are mammograms covered? - Is home health care covered? - Will Medicare pay for diabetes supplies? Preventive Health Coverage Medicare coverage includes preventive services at no cost to you. Preventive services can help keep you healthy by finding health problems early and can keep you from getting certain diseases. What’s covered will help you answer questions like: - Will my Medicare benefits cover services to help me stop smoking? - Can I get a cervical cancer screening? - How often will my Medicare coverage allow me to get a bone mass measurement? Ask your doctor or health care provider which preventive services (like screenings, shots, and tests) you need to get. Part A & Part B Costs Medicare Part A and Part B cover certain medical services and supplies in hospitals, doctors’ offices, and other health care settings. Part A hospital insurance coverage helps pay for inpatient care in a hospital, inpatient care in a skilled nursing facility, hospice care, home health care, or inpatient care in a religious nonmedical health care institution. Copayments, coinsurance, or deductibles may apply for each service. Part B medical insurance coverage supports medically necessary doctors’ services, outpatient care, home health services, durable medical equipment, preventive services, and other medical services. Under Original Medicare, if the Part B deductible applies, you must pay all health care costs (up to the Medicare-approved amount) until you meet the yearly Part B deductible. After your deductible is met, Medicare begins to pay its share and you typically pay 20% of the Medicare-approved amount of the service, if the doctor or health care provider accepts assignment. There’s no yearly limit for what you pay out-of-pocket. For some items and services, you must meet eligibility criteria or you may be responsible for paying all costs. Your doctor or health care provider may recommend you get services more often than Medicare covers. Or, they may recommend services that Medicare doesn’t cover. If this happens, you may have to pay some or all of the costs. Ask questions so you understand why your doctor is recommending certain services and whether Medicare will pay for them. Use the What’s covered app to answer questions like: -How much will I pay for prescription drugs included in Medicare Part B coverage? -Does the Part B deductible apply for cardiac rehab? -What percentage of the Medicare-approved amount will I need to pay for colorectal cancer screenings? What’s Not Included What’s covered doesn’t contain information on Medicare Advantage Plan, other Medicare health plan, or Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap) coverage. It doesn’t contain a CPT code search, exact costs on surgeries or procedures, or local coverage decisions. Medicare Advantage Plans If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan or other Medicare health plan, you have the same basic health care coverage as people who have Original Medicare, but the rules vary by plan. Some Medicare Advantage Plans offer extra benefits that Original Medicare doesn’t cover - like vision, hearing, or dental. Check with the plan or search in the App Store to see if the plan has a similar mobile application. This is Medicare’s first official app, and we value your feedback. Please tell us your thoughts by rating What’s covered. ## What's covered Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource126/v4/ce/78/f7/ce78f71e-84bb-c063-9231-86987ea97efd/cf99c643-f2d4-4055-ac30-17709be4e3b2_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.48.46.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource116/v4/b1/18/87/b1188762-ac24-950c-dc82-2cc2e843abda/c88d8b4e-758b-4d3c-bd83-b8ebdd2d7c88_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.48.53.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource116/v4/f3/2f/28/f32f287e-0bc1-11ff-dfb9-29c64e68c476/e8fc77b7-50ed-419f-8641-c165d9107d3c_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.48.59.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource126/v4/fe/e1/f2/fee1f299-c960-d678-3b49-899e309651dd/4d528bf5-06c3-4273-8525-ac3b24f47508_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.49.09.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource116/v4/2b/ab/af/2babaff0-7052-0c72-50a5-d0cdcf77cb3a/c1d405e9-3207-4c1e-8b35-091c9976e693_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.49.21.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 6](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource116/v4/b8/48/5d/b8485d4b-b2a2-f783-ccef-2e94cd962d9e/ba3b7ebe-7820-46d4-8082-b569477a0467_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.49.45.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 7](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource126/v4/f8/fa/93/f8fa9339-c167-0de6-781c-d5b7a0664a43/fb401be3-7f17-44ea-9f7d-36c3776c9be3_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.49.50.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 8](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource116/v4/c2/23/b8/c223b812-262d-987a-c6d4-c8093e928ed6/11e8e707-e5c8-472e-bc57-a33c855a9b58_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.50.05.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 9](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource126/v4/21/67/fe/2167fe17-36cd-1292-9f78-14db7815d0b3/53847bd6-417c-4a4f-961c-55c4a37cc923_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.50.17.png/1284x2778.png) - [Screenshot 10](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource126/v4/32/1f/af/321fafb6-7e74-c6d3-ccf7-6b17a9715675/f7fab1d4-1986-410a-b6cb-b51a69ee9794_Simulator_Screen_Shot_-_iPhone_14_Plus_-_2023-03-10_at_13.50.52.png/1284x2778.png) ## What's covered Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 100 (28%) - 4 stars: 72 (20%) - 3 stars: 53 (15%) - 2 stars: 45 (13%) - 1 stars: 88 (25%) ## What's covered Reviews in United States ### *---- "Not comprehensive" Doesn’t give information on medications or classes if drugs for specific conditions which should be a priority for this type of application. -- Tired of bad app, 2024-11-16 ### *---- "Not helpful" I was hoping for an exhaustive list of benefits. Try typing “Cataracs quote… Common surgery among Medicare recipients. Nothing found. Good luck. -- johnwolf3rd, 2023-08-31 ### **--- "Does not link to my account" No data from my claims and coverage -- Airiness 4565555, 2023-08-10 ### *---- "More confusing than actually calling Medicare" This app is of very little use. Just more of the if/and/but run around you get when you call. Recently had to undergo treatments for a known condition. This app doesn’t list it, but does list the area of medicine. It says to call your doctor. I call the doctor and they tell me to call Medicare. Medicare says to call my doctor…and round and round we go, with no way of getting answers until you get a $500 bill. This app is of little to no use in helping avoid this situation. -- Unhappy Charley, 2023-05-14 ### *---- "Needs update!" It still shows the shingles vaccine as not covered. There is a lot of potential functionality missing in this app. It could be much better! -- Kathy6937, 2023-01-08 ### ***** "What’s Covered website very helpful" Excellent information. User friendly. -- johnniejane, 2022-10-13 ### *---- "Terrible" You need to be in the medical field and know medical terminology to search in this app. Wish they would use simple words that the general public knows. Plus many medical conditions are not included. -- Kbsashka, 2022-06-21 ### *---- "Lists all benefits. No idea if applicable to me." Great hopes; extreemly disappointing. Not MY benefits. All possible benefits if they are applicable to me or not. Up to me to find out if they apply. I need more help determining what is applicable to me, not showing me everything. I want the app to track my benefits, advise me of the preventive services available to me, and when I last used a preventative service, and when I can use it again. Not rocket science. In a perfect world it would also show me if a different medicare plan would be a better fit - app was not downgraded for not having this. -- MikeLMA, 2022-05-26 ### *---- "Worthless, think it was paid for by big business." If it wasn’t paid for directly by big business they certainly had a hand in it. Might have received it free from big business to peddle its expansive goods. I tried to search for what brands of glucose monitors Medicare would pay for. The only information it would supply was for the one business makes the most on for the initial purchase, and for supplies after that. It was totally silent with it came to standard , less expensive glucose monitors. Someone should research how this app was acquired. Or research who got paid off to adopt it. -- JCboater, 2022-02-21 ### ***-- "Where can I fine it?" When I become unable to take care of myself how can I get help with general Medicare. / Homecare -- Willie Due, 2022-02-10 ### **--- "Doesn’t know what a CAT scan is" Pretty worthless. But what can you expect from the swamp? -- notcovered, 2022-02-08 ### *---- "Frustrating" Since the user is not a medical scholar it would be nice to list procedures in layman's terms. I am having my knee replaced and everything is in place. BUT, I was curious what the app said about it. Searched for it many ways with no luck. Looked under K. Nothing there. If I cannot search and get a response for total knee replacement or a variant of same then the app is useless. I will be freeing up space and deleting this app. -- Wacoed, 2021-11-17 ### *---- "What’s the point if I STILL.." …have to go to the website to see my personal information and account. This is just general information about A-Z stuff—NOT ME stuff! -- B.G.the K.I.N.G., 2021-11-02 ### **--- "Typical General Explanation" Quick reference to searching coverage, but very general response for coverage. For example it says covered if medically necessary or at high risk. When the physician says for your age and what he sees from the lab test result you need to have such and such test done (e.g. bone density), it means necessary and you are at high risk. But, then Medicare denies the claim even though they know your age and that is was ordered by the physician. -- Elliot1329, 2021-02-22 ### *---- "Unhelpful" I am a transgender person on Medicare, and despite Medicare offering transgender healthcare coverage, this app offers no information about it whatsoever. Not all people on Medicare are cisgender and the developers of this app should accommodate them, too. -- divorcedwife, 2021-01-18 ### ***-- "Expanded Search Terms & Save Would Improve" The app is a useful reference, but it could be more helpful if search results recognized frequently used shorthand and keywords related to common services, procedures, tests/labs, etc. (e.g. TSH, T4, HbA1c) and returned either a notification of non-coverage, medically necessary coverage (with clear instructions on the process to determine eligibility), or related results based on less strict rules than whatever the system has established through its keyword system (or lack thereof). The ability to log in to mymedicare or at least favorite/save pages locally to phone or cloud backup for quick reference would also be helpful. -- seaofpapercups, 2021-01-04 ### *---- "Would rate 5" But they don’t have any preventive measure for epilepsy and I’m epileptic and just got approved for Medicare so it’s a kind of scary because I don’t want my epilepsy to get out of hand 🖐 again since Medicare doesn’t have a preventative measure for epilepsy 😢 -- Bangheart, 2020-07-15 ### *---- "App won’t load!!!" While trying to open the app, it says Error Unable To Load at the top of a blank screen! It has the latest update version and it’s installed on a newer iPhone! -- wwbigal, 2020-01-20 ### **--- "Not very useful" This app is very limited in usefulness - not a good search engine. Most search programs today can handle natural language terms like “uterine biopsy” but not this one. I haven’t ever yet found what I’m searching for in this app. -- altcaseyc, 2019-12-06 ### *---- "Search is misleading" The search results are pretty much useless. -- Hammond12, 2019-10-17 [View all What's covered reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## What's covered Discovered Keywords -
