Huge Medicare Update: Telehealth Services Ending Soon [OnmG7TtP4EL]
Heads up, Medicare users! Big changes are coming to telehealth. Until March 31st, you can still enjoy telehealth from the comfort of your own home, no matter where you live. But starting April 1st, most telehealth services will only be covered if you're in a rural area - and even then, you’ll have to leave home and go to an approved location to use most telehealth services. Medicare Advantage plans, however, may continue offering expanded telehealth services beyond March 31. It depends on your plan. If you’re on Medicare Advantage, now is a great time to check if your plan still meets your needs. Our partner, Chapter Medicare, can help you compare plans for free—call them at 417-319-2139 to make sure you’re getting the best coverage for you!
