Your Social Security check went up—but so did your Medicare costs. In this episode of The Retirement Key, Abe Abich breaks down the key Social Security and Medicare changes for 2026, from the new COLA increase and full retirement age rules to higher Medicare premiums, IRMAA surcharges, and prescription drug pricing updates. Abe explains how these shifts connect to taxes, income planning, and retirement timing, and why small details can have an outsized impact on your long-term plan. A clear, practical overview of what retirees and near-retirees need to know now.
