Hello, My husband, Gary Austin Baudino, turned 65 this June 2, 2020. He opted to keep his retirement insurance in addition to Medicare. We were told this would occur automatically as he was receiving Social Security payments already. Now I am trying to enroll in the MEDICARE REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAM and establish an account, but it appears I need PROOF OF PREMIUM PAYMENTS. How do I request a COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENT STATEMENT from the Soc Security System? Thanks, Terri Baudino

Please advise me as to what I need to do to get some help. Thank you
I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner and I have a client that is stating she is needing to see a psychiatrist in order to keep her SSI. I am psychiatric nurse practitioner and she was wondering if that would be sufficient or does she need to see an actual psychiatrist?
