  • Part B: Generally 10% for each full 12-month delay.
  • Part D: Generally 1% of the national base premium per uncovered month, rounded to the nearest 10 cents.

How to avoid penalties

  • Enroll when first eligible or under a valid special enrollment period.
  • Keep proof of eligible employer coverage.
  • Maintain creditable prescription drug coverage.

Educational estimate only. CMS determines actual penalties. Part B and Part D late-enrollment periods can be different. The Part B figure is provisional; the Part D national base figure is official for 2027.
