Despite having Medicare, millions of beneficiaries have no dental coverage at all. That means routine cleanings, exams, fillings, crowns, and dentures all come out of pocket — often costing thousands of dollars per year.
With concerns on cost and lack of dental coverage, beneficiaries sacrifice routine and other dental procedures. What most people do not know, is lack of dental care can exacerbate chronic medical conditions, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease, contribute to delayed diagnosis of serious medical conditions, and lead to preventable complications that sometimes result in costly emergency room visits.
Medicare usually only pays for dental care that is needed to diagnosis or treat an illness.
Unless you have dental coverage you will have to pay for your regular dental cleanings, exams, and X-rays.
If you need more expensive procedures, that you don’t receive as regularly, such as fillings, bridges, crowns, plates, or dentures, Medicare does not pay for these procedures either.
Medicare usually only pays for vision exams or eyewear related to specific illnesses or surgeries such as those related to cataracts, diabetes, or macular degeneration.
You will need additional vision insurance outside of basic Medicare to help pay for your regular eye exams, glasses, lenses, and contacts.
Fortunately, many Medicare Advantage plans in Nevada include dental, vision, and hearing benefits at no extra cost.

Just like the dental insurance benefit, you can choose your own eye doctor.

In general, Original Medicare and most Medicare Supplement Plans don’t cover hearing aids, routine hearing exams, or fittings for hearing aids. This means that without other insurance, you could pay 100% of the cost for routine hearing exams, fittings, and hearing aids.
Medicare Part B does, however, cover diagnostic hearing tests that your doctor orders for a medical need like a recent hearing loss due to illness or injury. If your doctor orders a diagnostic hearing test, then you would pay 20% of the amount approved by Medicare, plus the Medicare Part B deductible.
Hearing loss affects nearly 1 in 3 adults over age 65, according to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders. Yet Original Medicare provides no coverage for routine hearing exams or hearing aids — leaving many seniors paying thousands of dollars out of pocket.
