With the large number of baby boomers turning 65 everyday in the U.S. (approx. 10,000 people a day), and the strive for better health and longevity; we at Senior65.com believe preventive health care is the most important way to ensure a long life. Which leads to the million dollar question, how does Medigap cover vaccinations? Don’t worry, we’ve got your answer.
What’s Medigap’s Vaccination Coverage?
We’ve tricked you with this question, because Medigap doesn’t pay anything for vaccinations. Don’t panic, Original Medicare picks up 100% of your Flu, Hepatitis B, and Pneumococcal shots. And, if you want other vaccines, you might be surprised that many of the other shots are not covered by Part B, but rather by Part D (your drug plan). Learn more about your Medicare scheduled vaccinations.
