Medicare Stroke Coverage – Stroke Prevention Is a Must!

In the United States, more than 800,000 strokes occur annually. A study showed that stroke is the fifth leading reason for death and is a significant cause of severe adult disability in America. Stroke victims are eligible for Medicare stroke coverage. The consequences of a stroke are numerous. Medicare pays for both hospitalization and doctor visits. Services to assist you in getting back to living a regular life are covered by Medicare. Medicare will also pay for any necessary long-term medical supplies you may require after a stroke. Explore the comprehensive Medicare Stroke Coverage plan to protect your health and support recovery. Learn about preventive services, rehabilitation, and long-term care options.

How Does It Happen?

The blocked blood supply triggers a stroke in the brain and can impact the speech, motion, consciousness, and more of a person. Due to this blockage, the flow of oxygen and other nutrients to the brain tissues is disturbed. This results in the formation of dead brain cells within a few minutes.

Risk Factors

Anyone may have a stroke at any period, but in individuals over 65, approximately three-quarters of all strokes occur. Certain things, such as cigarettes and alcohol, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and low diet, can increase the risk of having a stroke. Doctors say that by leading a healthy life, up to 80% of strokes can be avoided.

Warning Signs

As much as strokes are destructive, you can still learn about the symptoms and signs before they happen. Some common signs include:

• Trouble in speaking
• Pain in the face, arm, or leg
• Loss of vision (blurred vision)
• Drowsiness or dizziness
• loss of consciousness (brief)

If you or someone nearby experiences any of these signs, you should call 911 immediately and note all the characters that occurred at their specific time.
