The Part D-IRMAA is an amount added to the monthly Part D premium for individuals whose modified adjusted gross income exceeds certain threshold amounts.

Beware of Jury Duty Scam - Beware of a scam which has so far been reported in 11 states and may be targeting Wisconsinites soon. This scam, known as the “Jury Duty Scam,” plays out as follows: The phone rings, you pick it up, and the caller identifies himself as an officer of the court. He says you failed to report for jury duty and that a warrant is out for your arrest. You say you never received a notice. To clear it up, the caller says he'll need some information for "verification purposes" – your birth date, social security number, maybe even a credit card number.
