If an individual with original Medicare goes to the hospital for any time period for days 1-60 even if it only one day is responsible for 1100. After that 60 day period ends, if the person has to re visit the hospital, the Part A deductible is due again for another $1100. If you stay in the hospital for longer than 60 days, days 61-90 cost $275 per day. Medicare will always keep allowing hospital stays as long as you keep needing them. At some point the hospital can declare you a long term care case and then either a skilled nursing facility or an assisted  living facility and some times even a nursing home  will have to step in. At this point Medicare takes a hands off approach to long term care patients.

Lets take a look at some of the exposure original Medicare can leave behind with the hospital and doctor protection offered.

An individual is responsible for a 20% co insurance and the annual deductible of $162 with Part B of Medicare which covers Doctor visits and Medicare paid doctor administered procedures. Since Medicare is not currently capped with this 20% co insurance, a person is really at the mercy of their medical future when it comes to the 20%.

This is the reason created Medicare Supplementary protection, to fill in the gaps left behind by Parts A and B of traditional Medicare.

To date only one plan designed by Medicare covers all Medicare approved expenses left behind in the hospital and doctor’s office and that plan ladies and gentlemen is Medigap or Medicare Supplement Plan F. This plan also protects a person holding it for up to 100 days in any Medicare approved skilled nursing facility at no charge to the insured. It will cover any excess a doctor might charge and be aware they are allowed to charge you 15% more than Medicare assigns as a price to a procedure. Leaving the country? Medicare Supplement Plan F will cover you outside the country as well.
