Medicare Coverage of VaccinesPreventive care is care you receive to prevent illness, detect medical conditions, and keep you healthy. Medicarecovers many preventive services, including vaccines. Today we’ll discuss how the different parts of Medicare cover vaccines, along with some important notes about a few common vaccines.Point 1: Understand that most vaccines are covered by Medicare Part D.If your provider recommends that you get a vaccine, in most cases it will be covered by your Part D prescriptiondrug plan. Part D plans must include most commercially available vaccines on their list of covered drugs, including the vaccine for shingles. The amount you pay for your vaccine may vary depending on where you get vaccinated. Be sure to check your plan’s coverage rules and see where you can get your vaccine at the lowest cost. Typically, you will pay the least for your vaccinations at an in-network pharmacy or at a doctor’s office that can billyour Part D plan for the entire cost of the vaccination process. When you get a vaccine at your doctor’s office, askthe provider to call your Part D plan first to find out if the provider can bill your Part D plan directly. If this is notpossible, your provider may bill you for the entire cost of the vaccine, and you will have to request reimbursementfrom your Part D plan.Point 2: Learn which vaccines are covered by Medicare Part B.While most vaccines are covered by Part D, there are certain vaccinations that are always covered by Part B, likethe flu shot, pneumonia shot, hepatitis B shot, and the COVID-19 vaccine. Part B also covers vaccines after youhave been exposed to a dangerous virus or disease. For example, Part B should cover a tetanus shot if you step ona rusty nail, or a rabies shot if you are bitten by a dog. If you qualify for one of these vaccinations, Original Medicare covers the full cost of the vaccine when you receive the service from a participating provider, and MedicareAdvantage Plans cannot apply deductibles, copayments, or coinsurance when you see an in-network provider. Thismeans you pay nothing. Let’s review who is eligible for these vaccines and when:First, the flu shot: Medicare covers one flu shot every flu season. The season usually runs from Novemberthrough April.Second, the pneumonia shot: Medicare covers two separate pneumonia vaccines. Part B covers the first shot ifyou have never received Part B coverage for a pneumonia shot before. You are covered for a different, second vaccination one year after receiving the first shot.Third, the hepatitis B shot: Medicare covers the hepatitis B vaccine if you are at medium or high risk for hepatitis B, a virus that attacks the liver and can cause chronic liver disease. If you are at low risk for hepatitisB, the shot will be covered under Part D.Point 3: Know how Medicare covers the COVID-19 vaccine.Original Medicare Part B covers COVID-19 vaccines, including an additional dose or booster for certain at-riskpopulations and people 65 or older. Original Medicare covers COVID-19 vaccines even if you have a MedicareAdvantage Plan. You will owe no cost-sharing, meaning you should pay nothing for the shot(s). Speak with yourdoctor to learn more about the vaccine and whether a booster or additional dose is recommended for your individual circumstances. You should bring your red, white, and blue Medicare card with you to your vaccination appointment, even if you have a Medicare Advantage Plan. If you do not have your card on you, your vaccine provider will ask you for your Social Security number so that they can look up your Medicare information.Point 4: Protect yourself from fraud related to the COVID-19 vaccine.Scammers quickly adapt their schemes to our changing world. As the number of people affected by the COVID-19pandemic grows, so does the number of scams related to it. Here are some tips to help protect yourself from potential fraud concerning COVID-19:SMPThis project was supported, in part by grant number 90MPPG0020, Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, D.C. 20201 through the Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government.7 Paducah/McCracken County Senior Center PaducahSeniorCenter.org
