CMS hasn't officially announced the 2027 Medicare Part A and Part B deductibles yet. For comparison, the 2026 Part A deductible is $1,736, and the Part B deductible is $283.
Current projections estimate the 2027 Part A deductible at around $1,788 and Part B at around $292. Keep in mind, these are estimates, not confirmed amounts.
Part B: Estimates vary, with some projections around $292–$310.
These are projections, not official Medicare figures.
Important for Medicare Advantage members: These deductibles do not necessarily apply directly to your plan. Medicare Advantage plans establish their own cost-sharing arrangements.
My recommendation is to review your 2027 plan's hospital and medical costs before enrolling.
The projected Part A deductible for plan year 2027 is between $1,788 and $1,810. The projected Part B deductible for plan year 2027 is between $292 and $310. Part A is your hospital benefits, and Part B is for outpatient benefits such as your doctor's office visits.
Medicare Part A - $1,788 up from $1,736 in 2026. Part A benefit period begins the day you are admitted to a hospital or skilled nursing facility. Medicare Part B - $292 (up from $283 in 2026. You must pay out-of-pocket for medical services up to this amount before Medicare begins paying its share

As of November 1, 2026, The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has not officially announced the amounts of the 2027 Medicare deductibles. CMS will be announcing the amounts in November 2026.
The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) usually announces the Medicare Part A and Part B deductibles in early to mid-November, and they haven't been announced yet. The only thing that is certain is that we will see an increase in premiums, deductibles, and copays. The reason is that there will be an increase in the Social Security COLA for next year, and any time that happens, CMS takes advantage of that income increase to raise their rates.
Part A and Part B do not have their own deductibles. The deductibles only come into play with Part C (Medicare Advantage- varies according to the plan) or Medicare Supplements ($283/year for 2026. The 2027 deductible has not been determined yet as of 11/2/26). Generally, Part A covers 80% of hospital bills and Part B cover 80% of doctors bills.
