CMS Pub. 100-01, ch. 2, § 20.2
Premiums for Hospital Insurance
Each year, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services announces the
amount of the hospital insurance premium payable for each month in the following
calendar year. The applicable premium amount is 33/76 (about 43.4 percent) of the
hospital insurance deductible for that calendar year. The premium is rounded to the
nearest $1. An individual who is not entitled to free Part A and wishes this type of
coverage must enroll him/herself during the appropriate enrollment period. A premium is
due for each month of entitlement under Premium HI.
