Q: What services are covered under the various Parts of Medicare? Got any tips on how to remember this?

A: Now you do need to memorize this. I think that it’s important for us to be upfront and tell you, “No, you don’t have to memorize this. You’ve got resources and you can look them up.” And yet, there are certain things that you probably should just go ahead and memorize and this is one of them.

I found this lovely couple to put on my slides…

Laureen: I’m going to say too, this information shows up on several of the exams. It’s on the new inpatient ones, it’s on outpatient, and I think there’s a little bit on the CPC exam.

Alicia: Yeah, there is on the CPC exam.

Laureen: And it’s on the billing credentials so that’s four credentials, right off the top of my head, so this is definitely worth memorizing.

Alicia: Well, I’ll mention after this slide so we don’t mess it up for Boyd when he’s trying to do recordings and stuff.

Medicare coverage is based on 3 main factors: federal and state laws, national coverage decisions made by Medicare about whether something is covered, and local coverage decisions made by companies in each state that process claims for Medicare. These companies decide whether something is medically necessary and should be covered in their area.
