Medicare and Medicaid Dental, Vision, and Hearing Benefit Act of 2025
This bill would add dental, vision, and hearing services to Medicare coverage for beneficiaries. It defines specific services including routine dental cleanings, eye exams, and hearing assessments, with coverage gradually increasing from 0% to 80% over eight years. The bill also establishes frequency limits, such as two dental cleanings per year and one eye exam annually. Medicaid would see increased federal funding (90% FMAP) for these services starting six months after enactment. This legislation directly affects Medicare beneficiaries, particularly seniors and people with disabilities, by expanding access to previously uncovered preventive health services.
