Title: ●Regulations Regarding Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amounts to Medicare Beneficiaries' Prescription Drug Premiums (3624I) 
Abstract: This subpart relates to section 1860D-13(a) of the Social Security Act (the Act), as added by section 3308 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Pub. L. 111–148). Section 3308(a) establishes an income-related monthly adjustment (IRMAA) to the Medicare Part D premium. Beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Part D who have modified adjusted gross income over a threshold amount established in the statute will pay an IRMAA in addition to the Medicare Part D standard monthly premium and any applicable premium increases as described in 42 CFR 423.286. The regulations in this subpart explain how we decide whether you are required to pay an IRMAA, and if you are, the amount of your adjustment.
