IRA conversion to Roth and affect on Medicare Premium
I am 65 y/o. If I convert a Traditional IRA to a ROTH, will that count as income and therefore increase my monthly Medicare Premium?

The taxable amount of a Roth conversion will correspondingly increase your AGI used to determine the IRMAA adjustment to your cost of Medicare Part B and D premiums for the year two years after the year of your tax return that includes the conversion. The change in your Medicare premiums will depend on the amount of change in your AGI. You can find the IRMAA AGI thresholds on the Medicare.gov website:
