What do the parts of Medicare cover?
There are multiple parts of Medicare and it's important to know what each of them covers.
The parts of Medicare can be grouped in various ways. Whether you have Medicare Parts A and B (Original Medicare), you combine Original Medicare with Part D (prescription coverage) or you enroll in Part C (Medicare Advantage), what is covered with each will also vary.
