What happened
CMS announced the Medicare Part B premiums, which will be deducted from Social Security checks. While Social Security calculates its annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), rising Medicare Part B premiums absorb a portion of that increase.

Why it matters
The deduction means that even when Social Security benefits increase via COLA, the rising premiums reduce the net extra money received by most Medicare Part B enrollees.
CMS manages adjustments for Medicare Part B and oversees the federal health insurance program.
