Your MoneySelling your main home would not push up your Medicare Part B premium — one sale per person.
Your Money
Medicare charges a higher Part B premium when your income is high, and a home sale can push you over for a year. That home-sale income would stop counting, for one sale per person.
More about this bill
Medicare charges a higher Part B premium to people with higher incomes. Selling your main home can push your income up for one year. That can raise your premium even though your usual income did not change. This bill would keep income from a home sale out of that count. You could use this break one time. Once a home sale has been left out for you, a later sale would count again. The change would cover premium months in years starting January 1, 2025.
