GET THIS! MEDICARE PREMIUM INCREASES - A BACK BREAKER in 2014

Submitted by: Patricia E Jackson
SCHEDULED MEDICARE PREMIUM INCREASES
For those of you who are on Medicare, read the article below.
It is about the monthly amount of money you are going to pay in Medicare
premiums in 2011, 2012 and the huge increase you will pay in 2013. It's
a short but important article:

Congress will not allow an increase in the social security COLA (cost
of living adjustment); however, the per person monthly Medicare
insurance premiums are being increased as follows:
2009 premium of $96.40
2012 premium of $104.20
2013 premium of $120.20
And increases to a whopping $247.00 in 2014!
Thank You Obamacare!

Congress also gave themselves a $3,000 a month Cost of Living
Adjustment!

  2. Anon, If you are so sure of your claims of error why not set forth facts? Since there are no facts other than those set forth then stop lying! Pastor Lee

  3. Lee, ummm there are many sources that dispute the above e-mail submitted by P. Jackson. Here's one, a March 2011, article from the Florida Times Union from Jacksonville, Fl.

    "... Although the idea of a $247 premium in 2014 as mentioned in the email has been floating around the Internet for a while, the annual Medicare Trustees report predicts that the 2014 rate will be $123.10.

    Finally, as we have reported before, Congress by law does receive automatic annual pay raises, but representatives and senators voted to forgo those raises the last two years."
