Yes Medicare will continue to be deducted regardless of age. As long as you have earned income, even after retirement, you continue to contribute to Social Security and Medicare with FICA taxes at the same rate as before you retired.

What is Medicare patient's responsibility?
The patients responsibility is the dollar amount indicated on the MRN (Medicare Remittance Notice) due to the doctor (rendering provider). This amount is typically 20% that Medicare does NOT cover, and solely the responsibility of the patient when one has Medicare as their primary health insurance carrier, and NO supplemental or secondary insurance. By law the patient MUST pay this 20% co-pay amount indicated by Medicare. The patients responsibility amount may vary according to the level of visit, or deductible due, all indicated by their insurance. If a Medicare member has any questions regarding how much they owe to a doctor at any time, they should call the number located on the back of their Medicare identification card.

What is the difference if FDIC premiums were asset based instead of deposit based?
FDIC premiums must be deposit based because that is how they are paid out. FDIC insures each deposit at every member bank up to $100k (actually I think they just raised it significantly). If premiums were 'asset based' they would reflect the asset the bank holds, which does not necessarily have anything to do with how much the bank holds in deposits or how much the FDIC is responsible for in case of a failure.
