Does Medicare have an upper age limit for hip replacement?

BarbBrooklyn Oct 2019
No. Medicare does not discriminate by age. This is one of those rumors (like "death panels") that seem to have gained a life if their own among less well informed people.

Your doctor may not recommend a hip replacement due to medical conditions. But not solely because you are of a certain age.
