employment for at least 40 quarters). Doctor bills and outpatient hospital care are
covered by Medicare Part B. On the other hand, Medicare has only very limited
coverage for long-term care. Having Medicare does not mean a person has adequate
LTC coverage. Medicare LTC coverage should be seen as rehabilitative care rather than
as true LTC.

except:
A) private rooms.
B) meals.
C) operating and recovery rooms.
