What is covered by Medicare Part B?
Part B coverage, which is voluntary, pays for all doctor services that are
medically necessary. Beneficiaries may receive these services anywhere; a doctor's
office, clinic, nursing home, hospital, or at home. The Part B monthly premium is
deducted from your Social Security, Railroad Retirement, or Civil Service Retirement
check. Beneficiaries who do not receive any of the aforementioned payments will be
billed by Medicare every 3 months.
