Can my employer pay my Medicare Part B premium?

In terms of your employer actually writing a check for your Medicare Part B premiums when Social Security invoices you for Part B, generally no.

However, employers can form a Section 105 Medical Reimbursement Plan, which will enable them to set funds aside for workers to use toward health insurance and dental insurance for the employees and family. This includes Medicare Part B premiums. A Section 105 plan allows tax-free reimbursement of the employee’s medical and other insurance expenses.

One popular type of Section 105 plan is a Health Reimbursement Arrangement, or HRA. It is designed to reimburse eligible employees for their individual health insurance premiums and other qualified medical expenses.
