2027 Social Security COLA Expected at 3.7% Even as Medicare Costs Climb
TL;DR
Social Security’s 2027 COLA is projected at 3.7% based on June inflation, but higher Medicare premiums and costs (Part B about $209.50 and Part D deductible up to $700) could swallow most of the gain; final COLA is usually announced in October.
