| 07-4910 | Medicare Program; Medicare Part B Monthly Actuarial Rates, Premium Rate, and Annual Deductible Beginning January 1, 2008 | 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, 2008. In addition, this notice announces the 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. The monthly actuarial rates for 2008 are $192.70 for aged enrollees and $209.70 for disabled enrollees. The standard monthly Part B premium rate for 2008 is $96.40, which 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. (The 2007 standard premium rate was $93.50.) The Part B deductible for 2008 is $135.00 for all Part B beneficiaries. If a beneficiary has to pay an income-related monthly adjustment, they may have to pay a total monthly premium of about 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 2008, the beneficiary is only responsible for 67 percent of any applicable income-related monthly adjustment amount. (For 2007, the beneficiary was responsible for 33 percent of the applicable amount.) | 2007-10-05 | 2007 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/10/05/07-4910/medicare-program-medicare-part-b-monthly-actuarial-rates-premium-rate-and-annual-deductible | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-10-05/pdf/07-4910.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, 2008.
