Medicare B premiums are typically automatically deducted from paid Social Security benefits. They are deductible medical insurance expense and would be reported as deductible in a fashion similar to the premiums for a Medicare Advantage plan or a Medicare Supplement plan to Original Medicare.
The Form SSA-1099 issued to you at the beginning of January by the Social Security Administration will report the total of Medicare B premiums that were deducted from your Social Security benefits.
SPECIFIC and only TO ORIGINAL QUESTION by hootonjack I am unclear about one thing you wrote: "have health insurance from federal retirement" - is this some additional insurance separate from Medicare, such as Federal Employee medical insurance? That is, are you covered by more than one insurance plan?
