UNIT 1 Medicare Basics
Question 1
Mr. Buck has several family members who died from different cancers. He wants to know if Medicare
covers cancer screening. What should you tell him?
a. Medicare covers all screening tests that have been approved by the FDA on a frequency
determined by the treating physician.
b. Medicare covers treatments for existing disease, injury, and malformed limbs or body parts. As such,
it does not cover any screening tests and these must be paid for by the beneficiary out-of-pocket.
c. Medicare covers some screening tests that must be performed within the first year after
enrollment. Beyond that point expenses for screening tests are the responsibility of the beneficiary.
d. Medicare covers the periodic performance of a range of screening tests that are meant to provide
early detection of disease. Mr. Buck will need to check specific tests before obtaining them to see if
they will be covered.

Question 3
Juan Perez, who is turning age 65 next month, intends to work for several more years at Smallcap,
Incorporated. Smallcap has a workforce of 15 employees and offers employer-sponsored healthcare
coverage. Juan is a naturalized citizen and has contributed to the Medicare system for over 20 years.
Juan asks you if he will be entitled to Medicare and if he enrolls how that will impact his employer-
sponsored healthcare coverage. How would you respond?
a.Juan is likely to be ineligible for Medicare since he was born outside the United States and has only
contributed to the Medicare system for 20 years.
,b. Juan is likely to be eligible for Medicare once he turns age 65 and if he enrolls Medicare would
become the primary payor of his healthcare claims but Smallcap must continue to offer him coverage
under its employer-sponsored group health plan and would become a secondary payor.
c.Juan is likely to be eligible for Medicare once he turns age 65 and if he enrolls his employer-
sponsored coverage would continue to be the primary payor while Medicare would be considered a
secondary payor of his healthcare claims.
Incorrect: Medicare is the primary payor for individuals who have group health coverage due to
their continued employment with a small employer. A small group health plan is one offered by a
company with fewer than 20 employees.
d. Juan is likely to be eligible for Medicare once he turns age 65 and if he enrolls Medicare would
become the primary payor of his healthcare claims and Smallcap does not have to continue to offer
him coverage comparable to those under age 65 under its employer-sponsored group health plan.

Question 5
Ms. Moore plans to retire when she turns 65 in a few months. She is in excellent health and will have
considerable income when she retires. She is concerned that her income will make it impossible for her
to qualify for Medicare. What could you tell her to address her concern?
a.Medicare is a program for people who have incomes and assets below specific limits, so you will have
to find out her exact financial situation before telling her whether she can obtain Medicare coverage.
b.Eligibility for Medicare is based on whether or not a person has ever been employed by the
federal government. If she or her husband were ever employed by the federal government, she can
enroll in Medicare.
, c.Medicare is a program for people of all ages with specific mental health disabilities. Since she is in
excellent health, she would not qualify, but should instead look into her state’s Medicaid program if she
wants further coverage.
d.Medicare is a program for people age 65 or older and those under age 65 with certain disabilities, end-
stage renal disease, and Lou Gehrig’s disease so she will be eligible for Medicare.

Summary Notice (MSN) and disagrees with a determination that partially denied one of her claims for
services. What advice would you give her?
a. Mrs. Duarte should file an appeal of this initial determination within 120 days of the date she received
the MSN in the mail.
b.Mrs. Duarte has no right to appeal this determination since her claim has been partially paid.

decision she should request a reconsideration by a qualified independent party within 10 days.
Incorrect: Beneficiaries must file an appeal related to Part A or B services within 120 days of the date
they get the MSN in the mail. If a beneficiary disagrees with the Medicare Administrative Contractor’s
decision, he/she has 180 days after getting the decision notice to request a reconsideration by a
