I’m leaning towards Part B too, but I keep mixing up the parts. I should have reviewed them more before the exam!

I’m confused about Part C and Part D. I know Part D is for prescription drugs, but I can’t recall what Part C covers.

I think Part B covers outpatient services, but I’m not entirely sure. I remember studying the different parts, and Part A is for inpatient, right?
