Some standard Medicare Supplement policies include which benefit?

Medicare Supplement policies, also known as Medigap plans, are designed to help cover some of the out-of-pocket costs that Medicare beneficiaries face, such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. One benefit commonly included in many standard Medicare Supplement policies is coverage for hospice care.

Hospice care is a service that is covered by Medicare, but there are often additional out-of-pocket costs involved. Medicare Supplement plans provide financial assistance to help cover these costs, ensuring that beneficiaries can access the necessary support during end-of-life care without facing prohibitive expenses.

The other options, while they may represent important health care services, are generally not included as standard benefits in Medicare Supplement policies. For example, vision care and dental services often require separate policies, as they are not typically covered by Medicare itself. Prescription drug coverage is addressed through Medicare Part D plans, which are separate from Medicare Supplement plans.
