Costs for Medicare Beneficiaries
Patient advocacy services are covered under Original Medicare (Part A & B) for people with complex health conditions and/or barriers to care. These services are subject to 20% coinsurance, which means you pay part of the cost just like you do for other medical expenses. But, if you have a Medigap supplement plan, you may pay nothing at all.
