Emergency room visits are considered outpatient care and, as such, are not covered by Medicare Part A. Medicare Part A is for inpatient care while you are staying in a hospital. Emergency room visits and other outpatient treatment is covered under Medicare Part B. See Sources and related links for additional information.
