• Medicare Part A provides hospital insurance, yet it does not cover the benefit period deductible ($1,556)or the coinsurance required for hospital care.
• Medicare Part B has an annual deductible ($233) and typically covers only 80 percent of Medicare’s approved amount for medical care.

• Medicare Part A benefit period deductible, begins on the first day you receive service as an inpatient in a hospital and ends after you have been out of the hospital and have not received skilled care in any other facility for 60 days in a row.

When your Medicare Part A hospital benefits are exhausted, the insurer stands in the place of Medicare and will pay whatever amount Medicare would have paid for up to an additional 365 days as provided in the policy’s “Core Benefits.”  During this time the hospital is prohibited from billing you for the balance based on any difference between it’s billed charges and the amount Medicare would have paid.
