Question

I need to know how I can find out if my mom is covered under medicare part B. She throws everything out re health insurance and now the pharmacy cant find any info on her. Is there a website I can go to. She has another insurance that gets paid out of her ssi check but it is not medicare. She is 79 years old.Who can I contact or what website can I go to? Thanks to all answerers!

Answer 1

it says on her card it should say:

Hospital (part A)

Medical (part B)

try:

1-800633-4227

http://www.medicare.gov

Answer 2

You mention pharmacy...are you sure you don't mean Medicare D.  Check out the website.  Medicare B helps to pay for outpatient therapies and Medical Equipment and MD visits.  Medicare D pays for medications.  And Medicare A pays for hospitalizations and Skilled Nursing Facilities.  Call the 1-800 number actually because it will probably be easier to get the information.
