Pacemaker cost

Does anyone know of a Medicare plan that would cover the 20% cost above plans A & B?

I'm not totally sure I quite understand your question but... Plan F which is "medi-gap" or supplemental coverage. I have it through UnitedHealthCare and paid $0 for my last two CRT-D implants

Yes

Now is a good time to be asking. It's is open enrollment band yiu can jump on a plan without baby concern for pre existing conditions .

I think that window closes on Dec 7th 

If you are in the US...

...Go see your nearest Armed Srvices recruiter.  Sign up.  Stick around for enough years to retire and at age 65 a plan called "Tricare for Life" kicks in that covers all the deductibles and co-pays.

Not recommended for the faint of heart.

If they'll guarantee me "enough years", sign me up! 😀

That's discrimination against a minority group! The fact that I'm 67 now has nothing to do with it!
