How does getting married late in life affect my Medicare coverage or costs?

Answered by 1 licensed agent

Getting married later in life may affect your Medicare coverage and costs in a variety of ways. If you file a joint tax return with your spouse, higher income may affect your Medicare part B and part D premiums. Medicare charges beneficiaries more in part B and part D premiums if they are in higher income brackets. Marriage may also affect your assets which may affect your ability to get some sort of aid such as extra help and or Medicaid. I recommend speaking to a Medicare expert and a financial advisor as to your specific situation.
