    Abstract:
    This notice announces the inpatient hospital deductible and coinsurance amounts and the monthly hospital insurance premium for the uninsured aged for calendar year 1988 under Medicare's hospital insurance program. The Medicare statute specifies the formulae to be used to determine these amounts. The inpatient hospital deductible will be $540. The daily coinsurance amounts will be: (a) $135 for the 61st through 90th days of hospitalization; (b) $270 for lifetime reserve days; and (c) $67.50 for the 21st through 100th days of extended care services in a skilled nursing facility. The monthly Medicare hospital insurance premium for the 12 months beginning January 1, 1988 (for individuals who are not insured under the Social Security or Railroad Retirement Acts and do not otherwise meet the requirements for entitlement to Part A) is $234.
