Mr. Torres has a small savings account. He would like to pay for his monthly Part D premiums with an automatic monthly withdrawal from his savings account until it is exhausted, and then have his premiums withheld from his Social Security check. What should you tell him? a. During 2017, many people experienced significant problems with deductions from their Social Security check for their Part D premium. As a result, this method of payment is no longer an option for Part D premium payments
b. In general, he must select a single Part D premium payment mechanism that will be used throughout the year.
c. As long as he fills out the paperwork to begin withholding from his Social Security check at least 63 days before such withholding should begin, he can change his method of Part D premium payment and withholding will begin the month after his savings account is exhausted.
d. In general, to pay his Part D premium, he only can have automatic withdrawals made from a checking account, so he will need to transfer the funds prior to beginning such withdrawals.
