My PM, surgery, and all subsequent support (major) has been completely covered by Medicare and my Supplement insurance (Bankers Life). I have not paid a penny ! Now that is good for the heart!!!

Best advice I can give you...

Please the call the number on your card. Yes, they do cover pacemakers, but not a lot of extras. There are a lot of additional plans and secondary ins. Check it out before you need it.

Please call them, they will answer your questions, it might take awhile but you do have the right to information.

But I think it will make me feel a lot better. My stamina to walk is already better, even right after surgery. They had me walk all around the floor before they would release me. I did so without being exhausted and winded the way I had been.
