Misconceptions of Medicare-Click This Link For Services NOT COVERED by Medicare

Medicare coverage can often be confusing. The rules and regulations can easily be misunderstood by patients and by Medicare's own telephone representatives. One misconception is that Medicare covers only surgical procedures, and not medical care. It usually does not cover routine foot care or supportive devices of the feet including orthoses. "Services ordinarily considered routine are also covered if they are performed as a necessary and integral part of otherwise covered services such as the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic ulcers, wounds, and infections." If you have signed up for medical insurance (Part B) under Medicare, you are covered for certain services in our podiatric office.
