Q&A with Chris Vari
I've heard about IRMAA affecting my Medicare premiums. How can I find out if it applies to me, and how does it work?
Answer: IRMMA confusion among seniors is very common and understandable. The part B premium per month and individual will pay depends on if they file jointly or singly regarding their tax filing.
They calculate the monthly part B premium on a two year look back. So, for 2025 they're looking at tax returns for 2023. Typically for most seniors the 2025 party premium is $185 and it goes up from there depending on what an individual or individuals earn.
I hope that clarifies your question.
Thank you for using MediConnect as a resource of information regarding your Medicare questions.

I just started on Medicare Part D, and I'm confused about whether my new cholesterol medication counts toward my coverage gap. Can you explain?
Answer: Hello and thank you for asking for our assistance with your question. Your cholesterol medication coverage depends on if it's in the formulary of medication is listed in that particular Part D drug plan. If it is in the formulary and you use your Part D drug plan to purchase that medication it does accumulate to the $2000 maximum out-of-pocket limit for 2025.
When people reach the $2000 maximum amount of pocket while using their Part D formulary, their medication will be no cost to the member.
I hope you have a safe enjoyable weekend.
