AMAC Introduces the Exclusive Liberty Dental Program – Addressing Medicare Coverage Pitfalls
For many Americans approaching retirement or already enjoying their golden years, Medicare offers a safety net for healthcare expenses. However, one critical gap consistently causes concern: dental coverage. Recognizing this need, the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) has introduced the Liberty Dental Program, an exclusive dental insurance plan designed specifically to bridge the gaps Medicare leaves open. In this article, we’ll explore the challenges of Medicare dental coverage, discover how the Liberty Dental Program addresses these pitfalls, and explain why AMAC members have access to one of the best supplemental dental benefits on the market today.
Understanding Medicare Coverage and Its Dental Limitations
Traditional Medicare (Parts A and B) is an essential component of senior healthcare coverage, but it does not cover routine dental services. This includes:
- Preventive dental care (cleanings, exams)
- Restorative procedures (fillings, crowns)
- Dental surgery and dentures
The lack of dental benefits often results in high out-of-pocket expenses for routine and emergency dental work, impacting the overall health and quality of life for many seniors.
Why Does Medicare Exclude Dental Coverage?
Medicare was designed primarily as a medical and hospital insurance program. Dental health, unfortunately, is not considered a core benefit. Additional Medicare Advantage plans may offer limited dental, but coverage is often restrictive, costly, or unavailable in all areas.
