Does Medicare Cover Dental and Hearing Aids for Seniors?

Original Medicare does not cover routine dental care, routine eye exams, eyeglasses, or hearing aids, apart from narrow medical exceptions such as dental work performed during a covered hospital procedure, glaucoma and diabetic eye screening, corrective lenses after cataract surgery, and physician-ordered diagnostic hearing exams. East Valley seniors fill that gap either through a Medicare Advantage plan’s dental, vision, and hearing extras or through a standalone plan they keep regardless of their Medicare choice, and the better option depends on the work you expect, the annual maximum, the waiting period, and whether your own dentist participates.

When Do I Sign Up for Medicare If I’m Still Working at 65?

Whether you should file for Part B at 65 while still working hinges mostly on one fact — whether your employer has 20 or more employees, which determines if your group plan or Medicare pays first — and then on your HSA contributions, who else is covered on your plan, and your Social Security status. Delaying is reasonable with large-employer coverage, but small-employer plans, high premium contributions, heavy out-of-pocket exposure, or expensive prescriptions can make enrolling on time the better call, and retiring later opens an eight-month window that requires two forms.
