Dominion Health— Welcome Medicare Patients

Your Step-by-Step Guide to Understanding Medicare

Step 1: Explore Your Eligibility
Most individuals qualify for Medicare at age 65 or older, or earlier with certain health conditions. Start by confirming when and how you can enroll.

Step 2: Learn What’s Covered
Medicare helps cover hospital care, doctor visits, preventive screenings, lab work, prescriptions, and more — but the details depend on the plan you choose.

Step 3: Compare Plan Options
You can choose between Original Medicare or Medicare Advantage (private insurance plans that combine multiple benefits and may offer extras like dental, vision, or wellness coverage).

Step 4: Review Prescription Coverage
Medication plans vary. Our team can help you understand how to include prescription benefits to reduce out-of-pocket costs.

Step 5: Schedule Your Medicare Wellness Visit
Your annual wellness visit keeps you on track with preventive care, screenings, and personalized health goals — all covered by Medicare.
