If Medicare Part A covers a blood test for an inpatient, the cost of the testing becomes part of the overall covered hospital charges. Medicare Part A payment for inpatient hospital charges is subject to a deductible and to daily co-payments for stays of 60 days or more.ut sometimes a Part C plan covers more, with extra services or an expanded amount of coverage. (Co-payments for Part C plans may also be different than those for Part A or Part B.) To find out whether your plan provides extra coverage or requires different co-payments for blood tests, contact the plan directly.
Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people age 65 and older, people under age 65 with disabilities and people with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Medicare covers various medical services, like hospital stays and doctor visits, and supplies like blood glucose test strips. Prescription drug coverage is also available under Medicare. Different services and supplies are covered under different parts of the Medicare program, which are outlined below. Medicare does not cover everything and for many covered services you pay a portion of the cost, unless you have another insurance plan that pays for part or all of the patient cost-sharing.
