Update on the increase?
 

Anyone get the letter yet on the increase?(5.9%)

How much is Medicare taking next year?

medicare part B is increasing $10

I found this info...
[Medicare Information

Information about Medicare changes for 2022, when announced, will be available at Medicare.gov: the official U.S. government site for Medicare | Medicare. For Social Security beneficiaries receiving Medicare, Social Security will not be able to compute their new benefit amount until after the Medicare premium amounts for 2022 are announced. Final 2022 benefit amounts will be communicated to beneficiaries in December through the mailed COLA notice and my Social Security’s Message Center.]

Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) Information | SSA

at the current time, the standard Medicare part B premium is projected to be increased to $158.50 for 2022

It is $148 now?....I dont have the best memory!

The gov website has lots of information..
Medicare costs at a glance | Medicare

it is currently $148.50

whelp the medicare trustees were wrong.very wrong. The standard medicare premium is going up to $170.10 a month, a 14.5% increase, and the annual deductible is going up to $233, up from the current $203, which is a 14.7% increase. The cost of living raise is going to be only 5.9%. The cost of a single new alzheimers drug, 56,000 a year, is being cited as the reason for about half of the increases.

I heard we were to get something mailed with the increases and Medicare deduction, as of 12/15 i haven't received anything.

Every year they send this out, don't they? No telling when it will arrive but it will probably come along eventually.

Mail is slow this time of year..

It can be found on the SSA and/or Medicare gov websites.
Or if you have signed up for online SS/Medicare account...
my Social Security | SSA

I've found it useful to be signed up there. The security safeguards there make it really difficult to log in even though you're registered. Be prepared to jump through quite a few hoops every time you visit the site.

I'm sure that having that much security is a really good idea though.

Just received notice today - medicare is taking more - on the other hand SS is up so all in all getting an increase :)

There are reports yesterday that Biogen halved the price of the Alzheimer's drug that fueled half of the increase in the medicare premium and deductible for 2022, to $28,200. of course there will be no rollback of the announced medicare increases though there should be.

Still haven't received a thing, 12/30/21
