Medicare beneficiaries are entitled to a number of no-cost services designed to keep them healthy, and these three are just a few of them.
Obesity counseling — Medicare will cover the cost of obesity counseling for enrollees whose weight puts them in an at-risk category for obesity-related health issues.
Smoking cessation programs — Medicare will allow beneficiaries to enroll in an approved program at no cost.
Bone mass measurements — With the risk of osteoporosis increasing with age, Medicare will cover the cost of these measurements once every two years for those at risk.
See other Part B-covered preventive services.
