how much is medicare going up in 2027
The standard Medicare Part B premium is currently projected to rise by about $6.60 a month in 2027, from $202.90 to roughly $209.50, which is about a 3.3% increase.
What that means
This is still a projection, not the official 2027 rate. The official Medicare premiums, deductibles, and any income-related adjustments are typically announced later in 2026.
Other cost changes
- Income-related premiums may also change, so higher earners could pay more than the standard amount.
- Some Medicare Advantage and Part D-related amounts are also being adjusted for 2027, but exact official figures are not final yet.
In plain terms
For most people on standard Part B, the expected increase is small compared with 2026’s jump. The best current estimate is about $209.50 per month in 2027.
