Here's What Medicare Part A Costs and Covers in 2023
Medicare helps tens of millions of Americans get necessary healthcare coverage in retirement. With coverage available at age 65 for most participants, the various parts of Medicare work together to provide comprehensive coverage for multiple types of healthcare needs. Under the traditional Medicare program, Part A offers hospital and inpatient-care services.
Medicare Part A sees minor changes each year, and the government agency that administers the program recently announced what's new for 2023. Here's what participants can expect.
Medicare Part A coverage comes into play when you require a hospital stay or need to go to a skilled nursing facility. Under typical coverage, patients get coverage for medically necessary hospital stays, giving them a semi-private room and the medical treatment, services, tests, and prescription drugs needed to address the patient's condition. Patients also qualify to receive meals during their stays.
