Sandy Knoesel to Shirlee Zerkel re: question

Subject: RE: Question about the Medicare Part B premium!

Shirlee: We just verified with our contact at Medicare that beneficiaries who have Medicare Part B but who do not qualify to receive a Social Security check will pay any increase in the Medicare Part B premium. Our contact also said that there has been no formal decision on a Medicare Part B premium for 2010 as yet. (This decision is usually made the fall.)

Shirlee: I am checking with a contact at Social Security. I reviewed the June AARP Bulletin you referred to in your e-mail and am interpreting the information the same way. I will get back to you once I have more information.
