MEDICARE CORNER
Did you know Medicare pays for cardiovascular disease screenings?
Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) covers cardiovascular screening blood tests once
every 5 years.
Your costs in Original Medicare: You pay nothing for the tests if your doctor or other
qualified health care provider accepts Medicare assignment.
Note: Your doctor or other health care provider may recommend you get services more
often than Medicare covers or they may recommend services that Medicare does not cover.
If this happens, you may have to pay some or all the costs. Ask questions so you understand
why your doctor is recommending certain services and whether Medicare will pay for them.
What is covered?
Blood tests for cholesterol, lipid, and triglyceride levels. These screenings include blood
tests that help detect conditions that may lead to a heart attack or stroke.
