He has heard that there is a premium penalty for those who did not sign up for Part B when first eligible and wants to know how much he will have to pay. What should you tell him? a. The penalty will be a permanent 10% increase in his Part B premium for every 12-month period that passed during which he could have enrolled and did not. b.

Her husband worked for many years and contributed into the Medicare system. He also left a substantial estate which provides Madeline with an annual income of approximately $130,000. Madeline, who has only worked part -time for the last three years, will soon turn age 65 and hopes to e nroll in Original Medicare. She comes to you for advice. What should you tell her? a. You should tell Madeline that she will be able to enroll in Medicare Part A without paying monthly premiums due to her husband's long work record and participation in th e Medicare system. You should also tell Madeline that she will pay Part B premiums at the highest rate because her income over the last several years has exceeded $100,000. b.

She will pay a premium for Part B coverage based on her income level (her income-related monthly adjustment amount [IRMMA]). An income level of $100,00 would mean Mrs. Martinez would pay a premium more than the standard (lowest) amount but not at the highest level which looks at incomes above $500,000 for those filing individual in come tax returns.)
