Trump announces $90 checks for 20 million Medicare Part B enrollees

President Trump said his administration would send one-time payments of nearly $100, totaling about $2 billion, to more than 20 million senior citizens to help cover Medicare Part B premiums. The money will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, which Trump called a "pointless 'Slush Fund.'" The White House said eligible seniors would get direct deposits in early October or paper checks if they lack direct deposit.
