Original Medicare
Part A (Hospital Coverage)
Part A is premium free for most because they paid Medicare taxes while working. As long as you have worked for at least 10 years in your lifetime in the United States. If you have not, you can still purchase Part A if you’ve been a legal resident or have had a green card for at least five years.
Part B (Medical Coverage)
There is a monthly premium. The monthly premium is decided by the government and determined by your income level. You will pay a monthly premium for Part B. Most people fall in the bracket of paying the standard premium amount. In 2023, the standard Medicare Part B premium amount is $164.90. However, if your modified adjusted gross income is higher than a certain amount, you will pay an Income Related Monthly Adjustment Amount, or “IRMAA”. The Part B premium will be automatically deducted from your payments if you receive benefits from Social Security, Railroad Retirement Board, or Office of Personnel Management. If you do not receive any of these types of benefit payments then you will receive a quarterly bill.
Do I have to apply for Medicare Part B?
Most people usually sign up for both Part A and Part B at the same time when they are first eligible as soon as they turn 65. However, in some situations it might make sense to wait and sign up for Medicare Part B later. There are risks to delaying your enrollment and signing up later such as a gap in coverage or having to pay a late enrollment penalty.
If you are already receiving Social Security benefits you will automatically be enrolled in Medicare Part B.
