Sec. 4.1162. Additional Subsidy for Reimbursement of Medicare Part B Basic Premium.
 
   In addition to any other subsidies to which a beneficiary may be entitled under this chapter, a subsidy may be paid to reimburse eligible beneficiaries for the Medicare Part B basic/standard premium, provided that no reimbursement shall be paid for any premium in excess of the basic/standard amount due to charges for income-related monthly adjustment amounts or for any other reason, such as delays in applying for coverage or late fees.
 
   In order to be eligible for Medicare Part B reimbursement, a retired member, a qualified surviving spouse, or a qualified surviving domestic partner, must be:
 
   (1)   enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B; and
 
   (2)   eligible to receive either a health insurance subsidy or a health insurance premium reimbursement from the Fire and Police Pension Plan.
 
   The Medicare Part B reimbursement subsidy and administrative costs will be provided solely by the Fire and Police Pension Plan, as provided in Sections 1320, 1416, 1510, 1610 and 1710 of the Charter and Section 4.2010 of the Administrative Code. Reimbursement shall not be paid until sufficient proof of the eligible beneficiary’s enrollment, coverage and premium payment has been made as required by the Board.
