| 06-7709 | Medicare Program; Medicare Part B Monthly Actuarial Rates, Premium Rates, and Annual Deductible for Calendar Year 2007 | Notice | This notice announces the monthly actuarial rates for aged (age 65 and over) and disabled (under age 65) beneficiaries enrolled in Part B of the Medicare Supplementary Medical Insurance (SMI) program beginning January 1, 2007. In addition, this notice announces the standard monthly premium for aged and disabled beneficiaries, as well as the income-related monthly adjustment amounts to be paid by beneficiaries with modified adjusted gross income above certain threshold amounts, as required by section 811 of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003, as modified by the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005. It also announces the annual deductible to be paid by all beneficiaries during 2007. The standard monthly Part B premium is equal to 50 percent of the monthly actuarial rate for aged enrollees or approximately 25 percent of the expected average total cost of Part B coverage for aged enrollees, plus any applicable income-related monthly adjustment amount. If a beneficiary has to pay an income-related monthly adjustment amount, they may have to pay a total monthly premium equal to 35, 50, 65, or 80 percent of the total cost of Part B coverage, by the end of the 3-year transition period. However, for 2007, the beneficiary is only responsible for one-third of any applicable income- related monthly adjustment amount. The monthly actuarial rates for 2007 are $187.00 for aged enrollees and $197.30 for disabled enrollees. The monthly Part B premium rates to be paid in 2007, including the income-related monthly adjustment amounts, are $93.50 (the standard premium), $106.00, $124.70, $143.40, and $162.10. The specific amount payable by beneficiaries depends on their income level and income tax filing status. (The 2006 premium rate paid by all beneficiaries was $88.50.) The Part B deductible for 2007 is $131.00 for all beneficiaries. | 2006-09-18 | 2006 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2006/09/18/06-7709/medicare-program-medicare-part-b-monthly-actuarial-rates-premium-rates-and-annual-deductible-for | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-09-18/pdf/06-7709.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services | 221,45 | This notice announces the monthly actuarial rates for aged (age 65 and over) and disabled (under age 65) beneficiaries enrolled in Part B of the Medicare Supplementary Medical Insurance (SMI) program beginning January 1, 2007.
