My Annuity and Benefits Medicare

Medicare Premiums

If you are not receiving social security benefits, you can have Medicare premiums withheld from your annuity payments.   We must receive a request for the withholding from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. We cannot withhold premiums based on your direct request or even one from the Social Security Administration.  However, the Social Security district office may be able to give you additional information.
