Utilizing your bank’s online payment service, you can effortlessly remit payments for your Medicare premiums to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
To initiate the online payment service through your bank, you’ll need to register for the service or have an appointed person set it up for you. It’s important to note that neither Social Security nor CMS will partake in setting up your bank’s online bill payment feature.
Make certain you have the below details at hand before reaching out to your bank:
* The sum owed on your Medicare premium statement
* Account number: It’s your Medicare claim identifier minus any hyphens, found on your multi-colored Medicare card.
* Biller name: CMS Medicare Insurance
* Biller’s address: Medicare Premium Collection Center
P.O. Box 790355
St. Louis, MO 63179-0355
While it’s possible banks could impose fees for the utilization of their online payment facilities, CMS does not ask for any fees to process these digital transactions.
