If your parents received a letter this week from the SSA informing them that their Part B Medicare premiums were no longer covered (QI), it was likely sent in error

Just got off the phone with someone from the state's MedQuest division regarding my mom's coverage, and they let me know that quite a few people in Hawaii received a letter from the SSA informing them that their part B premiums would no longer be covered. These were sent in error** because there was an issue with their automated system.

While the person I spoke with didn't say how widespread the issue was, they did mention they have been receiving calls all day for the past 2-3 days. There was no mention of whether people in other states were affected.

You can find their number on their [contact us page](https://medquest.hawaii.gov/en/contact-us.html) to double check. It will likely take a day to receive a callback.

Hope this helps some of you out there. Happy Aloha Friday!
