medicare preventive :: Article Creator Medicare Part B: Coverage, Costs And Frequently Asked Questions If a person enrolls in Original Medicare, the government covers 80% of their Part B expenses after they meet their annual deductible, which is $226 in 2023. Medicare beneficiaries can purchase a separate supplemental Medigap policy from a private health insurance provider to help cover the remaining 20%. If an individual decides to enroll in a Medicare Advantage (Part C) plan instead, that plan covers the bulk of Medicare Part B expenses.
