Answer to Question 1

Answer:
Providers of services and medical equipment suppliers under Medicare must meet all licensing requirements of the state in which they are located. To be a participating provider under the Medicare program, they must meet additional Medicare requirements before payments can be made for their services. All providers must bill Medicare for a patient with Medicare benefits regardless of that provider's participation in the program.
Medicare does not pay for the following care received in nonparticipating facilities:
 Hospital care
 Skilled nursing facility
 Home health agency
 Hospice
 Outpatient rehabilitation
 Dialysis facilities
 Ambulatory surgical centers
 Independent physical therapists
 Independent occupational therapists
 Clinical laboratories
 Portable x-ray suppliers
 Rural health clinics

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
