Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following services is excluded under Medicare?

Emergency room visits

Self-administered medications

Medicare does not cover self-administered medications, which makes this option the correct choice. Self-administered medications are those that patients take on their own at home, and while some medications may be covered when administered in a hospital or under other specific circumstances, the routine dispensing of these medications for home use falls outside the coverage provided by Medicare.

In contrast, the other options, such as emergency room visits, inpatient care, and physical therapy, are generally covered services under Medicare when specific criteria are met. Emergency room visits are covered under Medicare Part B, inpatient care is covered under Part A for qualifying stays, and physical therapy can also be covered under certain circumstances, particularly when deemed medically necessary. Thus, while Medicare provides extensive coverage for a range of healthcare services, self-administered medications do not fall under this umbrella, making it important for beneficiaries to understand this limitation when managing their medications and healthcare needs.
