Plan N Part B Deductible

[Bob_The_Insurance_Guy]

Under Plan N, the Medicare Beneficiary must pay the Part B deductible. Does this mean they pay the Medicare approved amount for each doctor visit until they reach the $155, then they pay the lesser of 20% or $20?

or

They start off by paying the lesser of 20% or $20 right off the bat, and the $155 Part B deductible is used only for Labs, Xrays, DME?

The first.
