Why is my part time employer deducting Medicare and I pay for Medicare from my retirement check?

Your part time employer is deducting the mandatory employee portion of the Medicare Tax from your paycheck. All employees are required to pay this tax at all times they work to fund the Medicare system.You pay your Medicare Part B insurance premiumautomatically from your Social Security check. This allows you to make claims on Medicare Part B (e.g. doctors' services, preventive care, durable medical equipment, hospital outpatient services, laboratory tests, x-rays, mental health care).Medicare Part A (hospitalization) is "original Medicare" and is free if you have previously paid Medicare Tax from your paychecks.Medicare Part B (outpatient treatments) has a $134 a month premium.Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage: includes parts A, B, D and sometimes other coverage that regular Medicare would not cover) is operated by health insurance companies contracting with Medicare, you continue to pay the part B premium from your Social Security check plus you pay a premium to the health insurance company that varies depending on the plan you selected.Medicare Part D (prescription drugs) is operated by health insurance companies contracting with Medicare, you continue to pay the part B premium from your Social Security check plus you pay a premium to the health insurance company that varies depending on the plan you selected.


What if you cannot pay for Medicare B or RX plan?

Congress has passed bills which provide for Medicare Savings Programs in which the part B premium is waived ( will be paid by the state in which member lives) . It is based on a member's income. For Part D if the member qualifies, Low income subsidy (LIS) is available. The part D premium will be paid by the state and the copays for drugs will also be reduced, with no "donut hole" during the year. Anyone who has problems affording either the part B premium or Part D costs should contact Medicare or Social Security and apply.
