Looking for suggestions/recommendations on which BC/BS plan (standard or basic) works best with Medicare Part B. I realize we can't change plans now, but gathering up facts/info for the upcoming open enrollment season.

thank you
If he has BC/BS Federal, why are you going to pay for Medicare B? What does B cover that BC Federal does not?
We have BC/BS federal Basic and like it. Although, we have had problems with Florida Blue mishandling it compared to the state we moved from.
I have Federal BC/BS basic and ONLY Medicare A. We save over $200 a month by NOT having to pay for Medicare B.
