feels that he should be hospitalized. What should you tell Mr.

psychiatric hospital stay that Medicare will cover?

care during Mr. Rainey's entire lifetime.

are needed throughout Mr. Rainey's life, as long as no single stay
exceeds 190 days. Correct Answer C. Medicare will cover a total

Mr. Buck has several family members who died from different
cancers. He wants to know if Medicare covers cancer screening.
What should you tell him?
A. Medicare covers treatments for existing disease, injury, and
malformed limbs or body parts. As such, it does not cover any
screening tests and these must be paid for by the beneficiary out-
of-pocket.
, B. Medicare covers all screening tests that have been approved
by the FDA on a frequency determined by the treating physician.
C. Medicare covers the periodic performance of a range of
screening tests that are meant to provide early detection of
disease. Mr. Buck will need to check specific tests before
obtaining them to see if they will be covered.
D. Medicare covers some screening tests that must be performed
within the first year after enrollment. Beyond that point expenses
for screening tests are the responsibility of the beneficiary.
Correct Answer C. Medicare covers the periodic performance of a
range of screening tests that are meant to provide early detection
of disease. Mr. Buck will need to check specific tests before
obtaining them to see if they will be covered.
Explanation: Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans
cover most preventive services, such as screening tests, but
beneficiaries must confirm coverage of specific tests with their
plans.
Madeline Martinez was widowed several years ago. Her husband
worked for many years and contributed into the Medicare system.
He also left a substantial estate which provides Madeline with an
annual income of approximately $130,000. Madeline, who has
only worked part-time for the last three years, will soon turn age
65 and hopes to enroll in Original Medicare. She comes to you for
advice. What should you tell her?
A. You should tell Madeline that she will be able to enroll in both
Medicare Part A and Part B without paying monthly premiums due
to her husband's long work record and participation in the
Medicare system.
B. You should tell Madeline that she will need to pay premiums for
Part A because of her short work history. You should also tell
Madeline that she will pay part B premiums at the highest rate
because her income over the last several years has exceeded
$100,000.
