Medicare Part B covers which services?

Medicare Part B covers which services?

• A. Inpatient hospital stays
• B. Hospice care
• C. Skilled nursing facility care
• D. Outpatient visits

Answer: (D)

Medicare Part B covers medical services and care you receive on an outpatient basis. Part B is the medical insurance portion that pays for things like doctor visits, outpatient procedures, lab tests, imaging, and preventive services. The other options—an inpatient hospital stay, hospice care, and skilled nursing facility care—are covered by Medicare Part A, which covers inpatient and facility-based services. So outpatient visits fall under Part B, making it the correct choice.
