My Hospital Italiano plan was $15,000p 4+ years when I signed up. As of this second it is $210,000p.

We know someone who I can only describe as a health insurance broker. Friend of friend. I'm thinking that if dad cuts Medicare B in the USA and his private policy, he'll have about $360/mo. as an offset to whatever we can find here. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Once enrolled in Part B can you drop out? And if you can drop out, can you get back in if you want to?

Yes, you can drop out. Yes, you can get back in but you will pay a penalty forever. You can calculate the penalty using information available on the net.

I was just alerted that my Hosp.Italiano premium will increase by 18% in March.

My medical insurance bill is $245k this month with OMINT.

Previously, there was a regulation that prevented insurance companies from increasing premiums for individuals over 65 if they had maintained continuous coverage for 10 years. Is this regulation still in force under the new government?

I believe the law prohibited increases beyond the normal % that is charged to everyone, i.e. they could not double or more your fees just because you reached 65
