I'll soon be a Federal Retiree. The Fed Gov allows me to take my BC/BS plan into retirement- So I'll have private insurance

My BC/BS plan will reimburse me $800 in Part B premiums per year if I take Part B

I'm aware Part A is mandatory- but Part B is elective.

I go to the doctor quite a lot- regular doctor and specialists. What does Part B cover/pay for?... do they cover cover co-pays for doctor visits and urgent care visits?

I will be paying about $40 for all office visits. If Part B covers these it will be worth it.

Bottom line- I'm hoping to find out what Part B pays for and if people here who have private insurance find Part B worth the expense of premiums.

Thanks!
