Medicare Part D premiums are supposed to be withheld automatically from Social Security benefits, but Tim Waller reports that there have been many problems. Premiums were not withheld for several months from many people and then the premiums for all those months were suddenly withheld from one month's benefits. National Public Radio reports that some people who signed up for Part D and whose premiums were never withheld are receiving notices from their Part D insurer that the Part D coverage will be stopped if no payment is made. The insurance companies are blaming the problem on delays at Social Security.
