Cash Back
Common questions from members about Cash Back
Not all plans include Cash Back. Refer to your Evidence of Coverage to determine whether your plan includes this benefit.
If your plan includes a Cash Back benefit, refer to your Evidence of Coverage for your monthly Cash Back amount. Benefit amounts may vary by plan and can change from year to year.
For plan year 2026, the maximum Cash Back benefit is $148.80 per month, or $1,785.60 per year.
For plan year 2027, the maximum Cash Back benefit is $145 per month, or $1,740 per year.
There are no direct payments to beneficiaries. This reduces your Part B premium.
You will not receive checks directly from our plan. Instead, you will receive your Cash Back benefit in one of two ways. If you pay your Part B premium through Social Security, your money will be credited back to you on your monthly Social Security check. If you do not pay your Part B premium through Social Security, you will pay a reduced monthly amount directly to Medicare.
Social Security may take between one and three months, or longer in some cases, to process and activate your Cash Back benefit. You may receive a lump sum amount on your Social Security check to include the months prior to activation for this reason.
Please refer to Chapter 4 of your Evidence of Coverage for detailed information about this benefit.
