Some states (maybe all) will pay your part B premium for you, if your income is low enough. To get that, you apply at your state's income support office. It's considered a form of Medicaid.
This sounds like a great idea. Do you know if they will cover any premiums retroactively? The state of Massachusetts is backed up, I think, by a year if not more for their insurance premiums applications. If I pay Medicare B's premium, I will have to float it on credit cards. I simply have no money.
