Re Part A, per Medicare:On the off chance the bill does include Part A, then it could be for two months of Part A @ $227 and two months of Part B @ $134 per month for November and December as follows:
$454 - Part A - ($227x2)
$268 - Part B - ($134x2)
$722
Which means they are going to be paying $1,098 ($134+232x3) for the Jan-Mar quarter. Let's hope she is fully qualified for Part A.
I still think it more likely the bill is for the Part B arrearage of Nov/Dec and then advance payment for Jan-Mar. If so, she should ask SS to begin her Part B coverage in January.

Thanks SO Much. Yes I believe that is the case. When I find out what happened, I'll post the outcome
It will likely be mid next week when I run into him and not sure she will phone me about it again.
