Yes, you can pay your Medicare Part B or Part D premiums using funds from your Flexible Spending Account (FSA). If you have an FSA, you must also have an employer-based plan.

Nevertheless, you can pay for your Medicare coverage with FSA funds.

Does Medicare pay for physical examinations?

Yes. Thanks to health reform, Medicare beneficiaries now get a one-time "Welcome to Medicare" physical exam during the first year after they enrolled in Medicare Part B, and then, after a year enrolled in Medicare Part B, they get a yearly wellness exam. Beneficiaries also receive a decent list of free tests with NO copay and more tests WITH a copay. The details are in the Medicare Resource Center link below.
