Medicare Coverage for Health and Wellness

The federally administered Original Medicare program (also called Medicare Parts A and B), provides coverage for services that promote overall wellness, such as preventive care and counseling to manage chronic conditions.

After enrolling in Medicare Parts A and B, you have the option to switch to a Medicare Advantage plan (also called Medicare Part C) from a private insurer. These plans substitute for your Original Medicare coverage and may offer a variety of additional benefits that support your well-being like gym memberships and access to fitness classes.

With a clear understanding of your insurance coverage, you can make more informed decisions about your health. Read our articles for details on the health and wellness benefits that interest you.
