A vasectomy is a form of male birth control, or sterilization. It is a surgical procedure that blocks sperm from reaching the semen to make a man unable to get a woman pregnant.
Medicare Part A and Part B do not cover vasectomies. If you have Original Medicare, you will likely be responsible for 100 percent of the cost of your vasectomy.
If your Medicare Advantage plan covers a vasectomy, the cost you are responsible for paying may vary based on your plan’s deductible, copayment or coinsurance costs and network. Speak directly with your plan carrier for more information.
