You will notice that Part B premiums and deductibles are higher than last year, and this is due to projected increases in spending, as well as to remedy the 340B-Acquired Drug Payment Policy from 2018 to 2022.

Part A 2024 Costs

Medicare Part A is premium-free for more than 99 percent of beneficiaries. Less than one percent of Medicare beneficiaries must pay the Part A premium because they do not have at least 40 quarters of Medicare-covered employment. Those who have paid Medicare taxes for less than 30 quarters will pay a Part A premium of $505 per month in 2024, down from $506 per month in 2023 — a $1 decrease. Beneficiaries who have paid Medicare taxes for at least 30 quarters or were married to someone with at least 30 quarters of coverage will pay a Part A premium of $278 per month in 2024, which is the same amount as 2023.

The Medicare Part A inpatient hospital deductible that beneficiaries will pay when admitted to the hospital for 2024 will be $1,632, which is an increase of $32 from $1,600 in 2023.
