At All-Star Medical, we understand the challenge, and we’re committed to providing you with the resources and support you need to make informed decisions about your healthcare needs.

That’s why we’ve included videos in our comprehensive video library that address common questions about Medicare coverage. Kevin, the owner of All-Star Medical walks you through each video and addresses key points including:

• Eligibility: Learn how Medicare determines eligibility for specific items.

• Coverage limitations: Gain insights into the coverage limitations for different types of DME, such as rental versus purchase options.
• Cost-sharing responsibilities: Find out what your out-of-pocket costs might be, including deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance.
