How much is Medicare Part B?2020-05-12T21:57:27+00:00

In 2020, the premium is $144.60.

According to http://faq.ssa.gov/ : “Some people who collect Social Security benefits and have their Part B premiums deducted from their payment will pay less. This is because their Part B premium increased more than the cost-of-living increase for 2020 Social Security benefits. Social Security will send a letter to all people who collect Social Security benefits (and those who pay higher premiums because of their income) that states each person’s exact Part B premium amount for 2020.”

How do I enroll in Medicare?2020-05-12T21:59:09+00:00

If you already get Social Security, you will be automatically be enrolled in Medicare Hospital Insurance (Medicare Part A) and Medical Insurance (Part B). You will receive information about
your benefits in the mail a couple weeks before you become eligible.  If you’re not on Social Security and not ready to get it yet, we suggest enrolling in Medicare 3 months before your 65th birthday. Use (link here) to see what you’re eligible for.

Because there is a premium associated with Medicare Part B, you may turn it down. However, doing so, can cause a delay in benefits when you do sign up, and can cause you to have to pay a late enrollment fee, or penalty. The premium can also go up for every 10-12 month period you were eligible but denied the insurance, but you may qualify for a special enrollment period.
