What did Donald Trump claim about health care on 9 Oct 2026?
Donald Trump, President of the United States ·
This week over 20 million seniors are going to receive a check for a minimum of $100 each because I found all that money and was sending it back to the people to whom it belongs.
There was no $100 minimum. CMS set the payment at one $90 rebate per eligible beneficiary, sent in October 2026.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services says the Medicare Improvement Fund Premium Rebate is a $90 rebate for Part B premiums: 'Eligible beneficiaries will receive one $90 rebate in October 2026', most by direct deposit 'on or around October 8th' and some by a $90 Treasury paper check (CMS, Medicare Improvement Fund Premium Rebate Frequently Asked Questions, Oct. 3, 2026).
