Does medicare limit the number of echocardiograms one can have in any given amount of time? 
Medicare will cover an echocardiogram if your doctor orders it for diagnostic purposes . An Echo is covered under Medicare Part B. Medicare will pay for about 80 % of the costs after the Part B deductible is met -LRB- $ 147 in 2014 -RRB- - you would be responsible for the other 20 % and the Part B deductible . When you first enroll in Medicare Part B , you open your 6-month initial open enrollment period to buy a Medicare supplement plan -LRB- a.k.a. Medigap plan -RRB- with NO MEDICAL UNDERWRITING ! . A Medigap plan can cover the deductibles and a portion or all of the other 20 % of expenses covered by Part B and features a number of other big advantages as well . An experienced Medigap broker can help find the Medigap plan and carrier that 's most suitable for you and your budget . I hope the information is helpful - please feel free to contact me for help and if you have any other questions . Thanks very much .
