No problem. First you should know that the law requires an adjustment to your monthly Medicare Part B medical insurance and Medicare prescription drug coverage premiums. This affects less than five percent of people with Medicare. Most people don t pay higher premiums.
Can you tell me how you determine my 2020 income-related monthly adjustment amounts when it comes to tax return?
Of course. We use your most recent federal tax return the IRS provides to us. Generally, this information is from a tax return filed in 2019 for tax year 2018. Sometimes, the IRS only provides information from a return filed in 2018 for tax year 2017.
One more thing about Applying for Medicare. I am qualified to Apply Medicare at the age of 65?
You can, and if you are, your initial enrollment period begins three months before you turn 65, including the month you turn 65 and ends three months after that birthday.
What can I do after applying for Medicare?
You can sign up for A Hospital Insurance and Part B Medical Insurance. You can turn down Part B coverage if you don't want to pay a premium.
What documents do I need to apply?
You can find out online by checking the Checklist For The Online Medicare, Retirement, and Spouses Application.
