Medicare Safety Net
The Medicare Safety Net helps protect individuals and families from high out-of-pocket medical costs. Once you reach your annual threshold for Medicare-covered services, Medicare may pay a higher benefit for eligible services for the rest of the calendar year.
If you're unsure whether you've reached the threshold, you can check through your Medicare online account, or ask our team and we can help you understand your options.
