What is Medicare Part A? Medicare Part A is hospital insurance provided by Medicare through the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Part A coverage includes (but may not be limited to) inpatient care in hospitals, nursing homes, skilled nursing facilities, and critical access hospitals.
This includes outpatient services received at a hospital, doctorâs office, clinic, or other health facility. Medicare Part B also covers many preventive services to prevent illness or detect them at an early stage. Together, Medicare Part A and Part B are known as Original Medicare.
