Medicare

Postby robertm » Wed Jan 18, 2023 8:52 pm

Has anyone with Medicare received an implant? If so, was it covered and what did Medicare pay for? Did you have original Medicare or Advantage?
60 yrs old. Gradually worsening ED for 10 years. Pills and trimix not working well anymore. Will need an implant in the near future.

I have Medicare A & B plus a supplemental plan. Covered implant 100% because I had already met what is actually a fairly small deductible.

Implanted 2/18/21, AMS CX, 18 CM + 3 RTE, penoscrotal. Have gained 3/4". Gay, married, age 68.

I have BCBSTX Medicare advantage and my out of pocket was $200.

I didn’t have to meet any deductible either.
