handle is hein.gao/gaobacjmm0001 and id is 1 raw text is: STUDY BY THE STAFF OF THE U.S. General Accounting' Office Eligibility Of Civil Service Annuitants, Survivors, and Employees for Medicare In January 1983, Federal employees began paying the Medicare hospital insurance tax of 1.3 percent on the first $35,700 of their wages and thus become eligible for Medi- care hospital insurance based on their Fed- eral employment. This study shows that, as of December 1981, about 81 percent of the Civil Service annuitants, survivors, and employees age 65 and older were eligible for Medicare hospital insurance benefits. About 79 per- cent of those eligible were eligible on their own account and not as a dependent of another person. Individuals who were eligi- ble on their own account had earned fewer quarters and had paid less in hospital insu- rance taxes than a random sample of all Medicare beneficiaries who were eligible on their own account.
