Is Medicare Part B premium included in total (potentially taxable) Soc. Sec. earnings?

Question

I understand that Medicare Part B premiums are deductible as a medical expense, but I don't know if the Soc. Sec. 1099 will show a gross earnings including the premium.

Answer 1

Yes, the social security amount that is potentially taxable depending on your other income is the gross, including the medicare premiums.
