Kurzantwort
This charge is for your Medicare Part B (or other Medicare part) monthly premium, billed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
Medicare Premium Deductions via Easy Pay
If you are enrolled in Medicare but do not currently receive Social Security benefits to cover the premium, Medicare will charge your bank account directly if you have enrolled in their Medicare Easy Pay system.
The standard Medicare Part B premium changes annually, which is why the exact amount might differ slightly from previous years.
What does CMS stand for?
CMS stands for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the federal agency that administers the Medicare program.
Why is it not deducted from my Social Security?
If you are not yet collecting Social Security benefits, or if your benefits are less than the premium amount, you must pay Medicare directly.
