What Medicare Doesn't Cover

Many people think medicare covers all medical expenses once you turn 65. Unfortunately, there are some very large costs that are not covered at all like nursing home care after 100 days. Also medicare does not cover hearing aids, dental care, eyeglasses,  routine foot care, and 35% of outpatient mental health care.  One thing that medicare does pay 100% for is hospice care for as long as the doctor certifies that it is necessary for the terminally ill.
