How it fits with your Medicare plan
Some Medicare Advantage plans include limited dental, vision, or hearing benefits. If you have Original Medicare with a Medigap plan, standalone ancillary plans are often the way to get this coverage. Kesha looks at what you already have so you do not pay twice for the same benefit.
Questions to ask before you buy
- Are there waiting periods for major dental work?
- Is there a yearly maximum benefit?
- Can I keep my current dentist or eye doctor?
- How are benefits paid: to the provider or to me?
