Does anyone know if the premiums for Medicare Part B has gone up every year?

Or has the cost remained the same for a period of two or more years?

It only goes up when we get a COLA so no it hasn't gone up yet but when it does it only a few dollars..=)

No it has gone up but we havent..and wont for a while...he gave us 250 cash which would have been about the amount we would have recieved in a four period anyway. im not sure what thats was about except some old king throwing money out as a temporary fix.

The cost goes up every few years, not every year. It has not gone up except for new Medicare enrollees.

everything goes up every year, except my SS and pension check(s). We don't even get the COLA anymore, but the government gets a $3,000 pay raise.

No do not know but the social security site or medicare can tell you I would imagine.
I had to get supplemental government to pay for it for me as I am below the income to pay for it myself. so they pay for it for me and I am so happy thanking the Lord for the help.
