Note: Your Part B premium depends on your modified adjusted gross income. Most people will pay the premium shown in the 2010 Medicare chart above. The 2010 Medicare premium is a 15% increase from the 2009 premium.

If the Social Security Administration withhold your Part B premium in 2009 and your individual income is less $85,000 or your joint income is less than $170,000, then your Part B premium is $96.40 (which is same as the 2009 premium).

However, if you filed an individual or joint tax return for 2008 and your modified adjusted gross income was more than $85,000 for individual filers or more than $170,000 for joint filers, your Part B premium for 2010 is shown in the 2010 Part B Monthly Premium table below. Though the Social Security Administration will calculate your Medicare premium for 2010, it is always a good idea to check their calculation against your 2008 tax return.
