World Mental Health Day: Does Medicare Cover Mental Health?

Yes, there are mental health benefits in Original Medicare. If you get your Medicare benefits through a Medicare Advantage Plan (like an HMO or PPO) or other Medicare health plan, check your plan’s membership materials, and call the plan for details about how to get your Medicare-covered mental health benefits.

Fact: Mental health problems are actually very common. In 2014, about 1 in 5 American adults experienced a mental health issue

Only certain Medicare Advantage Plans (like an HMO or PPO) or other Medicare health plans have their own mental health benefits.
