    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    Medicare Part A will cover chemotherapy treatment as long as eligibility requirements are met and the treatment is a medical necessity. Medicare Part A will cover 80 percent of the cost after the yearly deductible has been met. The remaining 20 percent co-insurance is the patient's responsibility.

    Better not be poor, because when you get sick, one of three things will happen:

    1. Roll the dice and hope you'll get better on your own
    2. Insurance companies will be content to let you die
    3. The hospital will treat you and proceed to take everything you own.
