Do you ever feel lost trying to navigate exactly what services and procedures your original Medicare plan covers? Then you’re not alone. The coverage landscape continues to change, and no one wants to show up for a procedure that was previously covered only to discover it isn’t covered anymore.The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has been updating with a new, modern, “eMedicare” initiative which hopes to make discovering your plan information much easier.As Medicare coverage continues to grow year over year, it’s estimated there will be over 80 million beneficiaries with coverage by the year 2030. Plus, as the numbers continue to climb, the CMS wants to cut down on the growing coverage-related phone calls each year. One method of discovering it could be searching the Medicare website, but, what if there was an easier option?
