Dermatology
Medicare covers dermatological services for the diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders, including:
- Skin Cancers
- Rashes
- Other problem areas of the skin, hair, and nails
Skin Cancer Exams
Medicare covers full body skin exams for individuals with:
- a family or personal history of skin cancer,
- increased occupational or recreational exposure to sunlight, or
- clinical evidence of precancerous lesions.
- concern over any spot that is new or changing.
- concern over a spot that is not healing appropriately. Remember, a pimple that does not heal is likely not a pimple!
If you’re not sure about your benefits, please call our office at 719-531-5400. Medicare is government managed health insurance that does cover most all non-cosmetic issues of the skin, hair, and nails.
Medicare dermatologists are proud to serve this patient population. As a former member of the US Navy, I am proud to use my military experience, and the lessons learned from it, to take care of the dermatology needs of those who have Medicare, Medicare Part B and Medicare Advantage insurance! We are here to serve you as you have served us so faithfully for so many years.
