The coverage comes in four options, Medicare A, Medicare B, Medicare C and Medicare D. Under plans B and C, Medicare covers at least part of the cost for outpatient office visits. Plan A is strictly inpatient coverage and Plan D covers the cost of prescriptions. Finding a local Medicare doctor is easy.
