Medicare Coverage for Senior Counseling in Massachusetts
Blue Moon Senior Counseling accepts Medicare Part B for all therapy sessions provided to Massachusetts residents. Medicare Part B typically covers 80% of the approved amount for outpatient mental health services after the deductible is met, meaning most Massachusetts seniors pay little to nothing out of pocket.
Massachusetts has approximately 1.2 million Medicare beneficiaries. The Commonwealth has a strong healthcare infrastructure, but many seniors still face barriers to accessing mental health services, particularly those with mobility limitations or those living on Cape Cod, the Islands, or in western Massachusetts. Our telehealth model makes licensed geriatric counseling accessible from Boston to the Berkshires.
No referral is needed to begin services. Simply contact us to schedule your initial assessment.
