2019 Part B premiums are determined by 2017 income.

-- by Jim Miller

What You’ll be Paying for Medicare Next Year

DEAR SAVVY SENIOR: I know there will be a small 2.8 percent cost-of-living increase in Social Security benefits next year but what about Medicare? What will our Medicare Part B monthly premiums and other Medicare costs be in 2019? -- Curious Carly

Dear Carly: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services recently announced their cost adjustments for 2019, and you’ll be happy to know that the standard Medicare Part B monthly premium for most beneficiaries starting in January will be $135.50, a modest increase of just $1.50 per month over 2018’s standard premium.

There are, however, a small group of Medicare beneficiaries (about 2 million people) who will actually pay less than $135.50 because the 2.8 percent cost-of-living increase in their Social Security checks will not be large enough to cover the full premium increase. Thanks to the Social Security Act’s “hold harmless” provision, Medicare cannot pass along premium increases greater than the dollar increase in their Social Security checks.

In addition, there are also a small group of high-income beneficiaries (about 3 million people) that will pay higher Part B premiums because their income is above $85,000 as a single, or $170,000 as a married couple filing jointly.

Medicare uses modified adjusted gross income from your tax return from two years ago to determine your premiums, which means that

Real Hope for Back Pain Sufferers in the Coachella Valley Non-Surgical Painless Treatment May Eliminate or Dramatically Reduce Your Pain Caused by Bulging Herniated or Squashed Discs. ... No Surgery ... No Injections ... No Painful Treatments

World’s 1st “FDA Approved” Non-Surgical DeepTissue Laser Treatment pire Spine Center and their program versus surgery. I now have my life back and am again enjoying my retirement. -- David D

Hello, I’m Dr. Robert S. Krage, D.C. Are you in pain? Have you tried eveything to alleviate your pain without success? Are you contemplating surgery? Tried injections?

Had surgery but are still in pain?

In many cases the operations are necessary for proper health and recovery from an injury. However, I have seen hundreds of patients who received operations they did not need and are still in ridiculous pain. Inland Empire Spine and Disc now offers a modern-day method of pain relief that is proven to be an effective alternative to surgery. ... simply the best for spine and disc -- bar none.

Surgeon Turns Believer

Dr. Robert Murrow, a well known, trusted orthopedic surgeon who had performed over 15,000 surgeries said, “I was suffering from shoulder pain for six months straight with no relief. I heard about laser treatment and after seeing and hearing many of my patients’ stories, I did more research on the topic and found that the doctors and staff now using the LCT-1000® finally have a tool to help people who think that surgery is their only option.

I went to get treated with the LiteCure laser and was amazed that it took away all my pain. After six months of misery, I am happy and relieved to say that I am now pain free.”

Are PILLS & INJECTIONS effective, longterm solutions for pain relief? NO WAY!

effects or risks that may occur with other forms of treatment. In addition, it can often achieve results faster than other treatment modalities.

During the treatment the patient feels a deep soothing warmth and pleasant sensation that reassures that the laser is activating cells in the healing process immediately!

Inland Empire Spine and Disc treats: • Herniated Disc • Slipped Disc • Disc Degeration • Spinal Stenosis • Numbness in Toes or Fingers • Back or Neck Pain

“My husband and I were very skeptical that anything could help our injuries from more than 25 years ago. In ten short weeks our lives have been transformed from progressive disability to active enjoyment in our retirement years. Dr. Krage has a genuine desire to see each person get better. His approach includes not only decompression and laser, but also muscle work, vitamins, orthotics, and exercises. We now have hope and are motivated to continue these healthy lifestyle changes. My husband and I are now able to do things we have wanted to do but didn’t think possible, thanks to Dr. Krage.” -- Joan S.

Still Want Satisfaction Guaranteed?

In a world of moneyback guarantees, who goes through the hassle getting it back anyway?

I’m willing to take it a step further. I’m so confident that you will find relief at Inland Empire Spine and Disc that I’m allowing the first 25 callers to receive two free treatments at our office.

Antibiotics vs. Probiotics

DEAR DR. ROACH: I understand that the overuse of antibiotics can harm the good bacteria in the intestinal tract, as well as the bad. While I don’t feel that I am abusing antibiotics, I have been prescribed two courses in the past five years. I wonder what action can be taken to try to ensure that balance in my gut is restored. -- M.L.

YOUR

SOCIAL SECURITY

Q:

I will turn 66 in March 2019 and want my benefits to start then. When should I sign up for my Social Security? Some people told me three months ahead of time. Others say six months. A neighbor told me it’s actually best to wait until after my birthday. So what do I do?

by Tom Margenau

Filing for Social Security Is a Big Deal

A:

I have to constantly remind myself that filing for Social Security benefits is a big deal for almost everyone. After all, it’s something you usually do only once in your life. (Although there are some people who might file twice. For example, a woman who applies for retirement benefits in her 60s and then goes back to the Social Security office in her 80s to file for widow’s benefits.)

But the point is, it’s a rare and significant occasion for most people. And I have to remind myself of that because I’m so used to helping people who have plans to apply for benefits. I worked for the Social Security Administration for more than 30 years and have written this column for 20 years. So I have helped literally tens of thousands of people sign up for Social Security. I could do it in my sleep! (Actually, I really do. Believe it or not, instead of dreaming about alluring women or exotic beach locales, I dream about Social Security scenarios all the time.)

So there are many elements of Social Security eligibility, or many facets of filing for Social Security benefits, that I just take for granted. And when I get some basic or elementary questions from people, my first instinct is to say, “Duh, the answer is so obvious!” But then I remind myself that for the person asking the question, it is not so elemental at all. Filing for Social Security is a big and new and important part of his or her life and the person just wants to make sure to get it all right.

Today’s questions are like that. They are no-brainers to me. But they are important issues to PROOF many ADVERTISING readers: Final Changes DUE: 5:00 p.m..

SSA is super efficient when it comes to processing retirement claims. In fact, it usually takes them less than a week to get a claim ready for monthly payments. Still, I suggest you get the ball rolling about two months ahead of time. You said you turn 66 in March. So file your claim in January or February. You can do so online at www.socialsecurity.gov or by calling SSA at 800-772-1213.

Q:

I am about to sign up for my Social Security and am in a panic. I swear I always had my Social Security card hidden in a safe place in my desk. But now that I need it and went to get it, I can’t find it! I’ve looked ever ywhere. Do I have to wait to get a replacement card before I can apply for my Social Security benefits?

A:

You don’t need your Social Security card to apply for Social Security benefits. You just need to know what your Social Security number is, and I’m sure you know that.

What you should do is stop worrying.

Your place of birth has absolutely no bearing on your eligibility for Social Security benefits. You don’t have to do anything about it. On the off chance that someone from Social Security ever contacts you about this, you simply tell them exactly what you told me in your email.

Q:

I just applied for my Social Security benefits online. One of the questions asked me where I was born. I answered Litchfield, Illinois. It was only later that I looked at my birth certificate and remembered that even though my parents lived in Litchfield and I grew up there, I was actually born in a town up the road, Hillsboro, Illinois. Now I am worried sick that this incorrect answer will mess up my Social Security benefits. What should I do?

A:

You should go ahead and apply for Social Security benefits as you planned. There is a chance that SSA might not even need your birth certificate. That’s because for many people, they already obtained proof of your birth at the time you signed up for your original Social Security card. But if they do need your birth certificate, they will need to see an official certified copy before they can finish the processing of your claim. So you might want to start the process of getting one. Even if SSA doesn’t need it, you probably will want to have it in your records for future use.

Q: Why do your fingers get wrinkled after being in the water a long time?

A: The epidermis, the outer layer of skin, absorbs

water over time. Because the skin on your fingers (and feet) is thicker than the skin on the rest of your body, it absorbs the most water.

The epidermis swells, but the next layer down, the dermis, does not. This causes buckling and wrinkling of the outer skin.
