Accessible Care for Seniors Signing Up for Medicare Benefits
WEATHERFORD, Texas, Oct. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- On October 15, open enrollment for Medicare will begin. Millions of seniors in Texas will once again face the challenge of finding the right Medicare coverage, including the need to decide between Original Medicare or Medicare Advantage plans. While the primary focus will be on medical and prescription coverage, it is important not to ignore the potential impact of dental coverage.
Most Medicare participants don't realize the program does not include routine, preventive dental procedures, which are critical to longevity and overall health. Currently, Medicare benefits only apply to surgical dental procedures carried out in hospitals. As a result, seniors must either pay for dental services completely out-of-pocket or try to find a Medicare supplement that provides high-quality, affordable and accessible dental care.
Unfortunately, this is extremely difficult. Most Medicare dental supplements are low-cost and poorly designed. In addition, these plans have very limited networks of inexperienced dentists.
"We understand the challenges seniors in this situation face, which is one reason why we offer the Beacon Dental Savings Plans," commented Dr. Thomas Novak. He continued, "We make the search for experienced and knowledgeable dentists easy and provide the care seniors need at a rate they can afford. Our Plans allow these patients to enjoy friendly, personalized care at a consistent, low monthly fee."
Furthermore, the negative impact of poor dental care on the overall health of seniors can be significant. A range of statistics tell the story:
While dental membership plans have existed for more than 20 years, most patients are unaware of this option. At the same time, ease of use and enrollment are two of the most significant benefits. Other facts to know about the Beacon Dental Savings Plans include:
As seniors consider the benefits of the Beacon Dental Savings Plan, it is important to keep a couple of dates in mind. Open enrollment for Medicare starts on October 15, 2023, and ends December 7, 2023. This is the time to drop an existing dental supplement that is not working and to enroll in a better form of coverage.
