What Does Medicare Insurance Cost?
Medicare Part A
In the case of Medicare Part A, you may not have to pay any Medicare insurance premiums at all. It depends on how much Medicare taxes you paid while you were working. If you paid 40 quarters of Medicare taxes into social security, you will not have to pay a Medicare Part A premium.
You will pay a premium of $254.00 per month if you paid 30 to 39 quarters of Medicare taxes.
A premium of $461.00 per month if you paid 29 to zero quarters of Medicare taxes during employment or if you did not work.

The first premium is $110.50 per month with the individual income between 0 and $85,000.00 and the married income between 0 and $170,000.00
The next premium is 154.70 per month if the income is $85,001 to $107,000 for individual or $170,001 to $214,000 for married
