Excuse me, I was reading about Medicare coverage and came across a statement that it covers 100% of hospital bills. Now, I'm a bit confused because I've heard that there might be some out-of-pocket expenses involved. So, I was wondering if you could clarify for me: Does Medicare really cover 100% of hospital bills in all cases, or are there any instances where patients may still have to pay a portion of the bill themselves? It would be great if you could elaborate on this matter. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Excuse me, could you please clarify what the Medicare fee-for-service system entails? I'm curious to understand how it differs from other healthcare payment models and how it works in practice. Does it involve direct payments to healthcare providers for each service rendered to Medicare beneficiaries? If so, how are these fees determined and regulated to ensure fair pricing and quality care? Thank you for your time and assistance in explaining this topic.
