What Does Medicare Cover for Podiatry Services?
Medicare Part B typically covers medically necessary podiatry treatments, such as:
-
Care for foot injuries, ulcers, or infections
-
Diabetic foot exams and maintenance
-
Ingrown toenail or nail-related conditions
-
Heel or arch pain (like plantar fasciitis)
-
Wound care and minor surgical procedures
Note: Routine or cosmetic care—like callus trimming or pedicures—isn’t usually covered unless your doctor determines it’s medically necessary due to another condition (for example, diabetes or poor circulation).
Why Choose a Medicare-Approved Podiatrist?
Working with a Medicare-approved podiatrist means smoother billing and fewer surprises.
Our office:
-
Verifies your eligibility before your appointment
-
Files claims directly with Medicare
-
Minimizes your out-of-pocket costs
-
Helps coordinate referrals if additional specialists are needed
Think of us as your tour guide through the Medicare maze—only friendlier and much faster.
Common Foot Conditions Covered by Medicare
Diabetic Foot Care
Regular diabetic foot visits help prevent ulcers, infections, and even amputations. Medicare typically covers these visits every six months (or more frequently if medically necessary).
Heel Pain & Plantar Fasciitis
Chronic heel or arch pain that affects mobility is often eligible for Medicare-covered evaluation and treatment. Read more about Plantar Fasciitis.
Toenail & Skin Conditions
Painful ingrown nails, thickened nails, corns, or calluses can all qualify for covered treatment if associated with a medical condition.
Foot & Ankle Injuries
Sprains, tendonitis, and fractures are treated under your standard Medicare Part B benefits when medically required. Read more about foot and ankle injuries.
