Summit Health Oregon accepts Medicare, Medicare Advantage, and all supplemental Medicare plans
Medicare is a health insurance program for people aged 65 or older or younger people with certain medical conditions or disabilities that qualify under government rules. Original Medicare, made up of Part A and Part B, is a federally provided program. Medicare Advantage, or Part C, is a plan through a private company that bundles parts A, B, and usually D (the prescription drug coverage plan). Original Medicare does not cover most prescription drug costs, vision, dental, hearing, or long-term nursing home health needs. Medicare Supplement Insurance, also known as Medigap, is extra insurance you can buy from a private company that helps pay your share of Original Medicare costs.
Summit Health Oregon has partnered with HealthShare360, an unbiased local resource that specializes in Medicare, to help patients understand their Medicare options and select the best plan for their needs. HealthShare360 can explain Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement Insurance, and Prescription Drug Plan options. Patients can also contact Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE to get information on all of their options.
It is important to understand the specifics of your health insurance plan, including any copays, deductibles, and coinsurance, before visiting your physician or undergoing procedures. Summit Health Oregon recommends that patients learn the details of their plans by visiting their insurance company's website or contacting its customer service department.
