Policelogs ByGregDill This past holiday sea- son, I found myself in line at the airport coun- ter, waiting to check a bag prior to a flight to visit family and friends. The gentlemen in front of me got frustrated when the customer agent said he had to pay more to check a bag because he hadn't paid for it online beforehand. I could relate to his irri- tation since I'd had a sim- ilar experience years ago. But I was late for my plane and hoped the situation would be remedied soon. After talking to a manager and reviewing the terms of the ticket purchase, the man paid the extra fee. The rest of us in line sighed quiet relief as the clock ticked down to our departure times. The gentleman's reac- tion made me think of a Medicare beneficiary I en- countered a while back. He'd decided not to enroll in Medicare Part B, which helps pay for doctor fees, outpatient treatment, and preventive-care services, when he was first eligible. At the time he declined his Part B benefits, he was in good health. He rarely saw a doctor, didn't take prescription drugs, and never had been admitted to a hospital. Part B carries a monthly premium (about $109 for most people in 2017), and the man didn't think he should pay for something he didn't need. Several years later his health declined and he wanted Part B. He signed up in March but learned that his coverage wouldn't start until July. And since he waited five years to en- roll after he was initially el- igible (and didn't have job- based insurance during that time), he discovered that he'd have to pay a late penalty equal to 50 percent of his monthly premium. He was very sur- prised, to say the least. He reached out to Medicare to reduce the penalty, but unfortunately we couldn't do anything to help. When the beneficiary turned down Part B five years ear- lier, he signed a document explaining the penalty and the potential for higher costs. He now must pay this surcharge on his Part B premium for as long as he has Part B. Why does Medicare have such penalties? Like private insurance, Medicare spreads its costs across a "pool" of insured people that includes both those who are healthy and those with medical prob- lems. Late-enrollment pen- alties are meant to ensure that people join the risk pool when they're healthy, not just when they get sick. Thus, premiums paid by healthy people help off- set the costs of those who with illnesses, keeping the program's overall expenses as low as possible for ev- eryone. Late-enrollment pen- alties can add up. Your Part B premium may go up 10 percent for each full 12-month period that you could've had Part B but didn't sign up for it. (You don't usually pay a late penalty if you defer Part B while you're covered by employer insurance.) So please remember: If you don't sign up for Part B when you're first eligible, you may have to pay the late penalty for as long as you have Part B. Late penalties also apply to Medicare Part A, which covers hospitalization. Al- though the vast majority of people with Medicare don't pay for Part A, those who do must sign up when they're first eligible or face a potential penalty. You can also get hit with a penalty for late enroll- ment in Medicare Part D, which helps pay for pre- scription drugs. The way it's calculated is more com- plicated than Part B, but this penalty can add up, too. For details, see the 2017 Medicare & You hand- book, mailed to every per- son with Medicare in the fall.

MEDICARE Don'tgetstuck with late fees The stockmen from the west side of the valley met yesterday in the supervisors room in the court house to discuss matters pertaining to their industry. The main question be- fore this representative body of stockmen from this part of Tehama county was whether to join the Tehama County Stockmen's associa- tion or to form one of their own. After the question had been thoroughly aired it was moved that the men from this section join with the association. This association left sev- eral officers open to be se- lected at a later time in or- der to find out just what the west side men wanted. With their joining the association the offices left vacant will be filled by them at a meet- ing which will be held on February 10th. The meeting on February 10th will be one of great in- terest to all the stockmen of the county. The famous Benson hide and brand bill which is now before the leg- islature will be up and it is to the interest of all stock- men that they attend in or- der to take some action on this measure. — Jan. 24, 1917 100 YEARS AGO... West valley stockmen join big association After a little over a decade of service, Patricia Rasmus- sen resigned the Corning Healthcare District board where she served as presi- dent for over four years. Rasmussen joined the board in 2004 and re- mained until the end of 2016. She wanted to con- tinue to serve, but cited for personal reasons she thought it wisest to step down and allow others to serve in her place. When a name for the Meuser Memorial Health Center building was being considered, Rasmussen in- terviewed George Meuser, son of the well-known late Dr. Meuser. The direc- tor said someone who had contributed so much to the community, both in medi- cal service and donating the land for a hospital, should be recognized for his phil- anthropic giving to Corning and the surrounding com- munity. This active director was instrumental in bring- ing much-needed counsel- ing services to the Corning Healthcare District, such as former New Directions to Hope and North Valley Catholic Social Service as well as Children First. Whenever the opportu- nity arose to bring better services to the residents of her district, Rasmussen never hesitated to vote yes. She was always an advocate for those in need and un- derstood the concept that healthcare districts are meant to bring services to the underserved. Rasmussen was an ad- vocate for Corning Medical Associates, formerly admin- istered and owned by Con- nie and Don Massie. She un- derstood the need for clin- ical services and how vital it was to make sure that the southern part of the county did not lack medical care. Rasmussen was not afraid to stand up for hu- man rights. She was an ad- vocate for honest working employees and showed her kindness in practical ways. Rasmussen will be greatly missed by direc- tors and employees alike. She has promised to attend meetings as often as possi- ble, for which all the mem- bers of Corning Healthcare District, elected and em- ployed, are grateful.
