Sec. 408.42  Deduction from railroad retirement benefits.



    (a) Responsibility for deductions. If an enrollee is entitled to 

railroad retirement benefits, his or her SMI premiums are deducted from 

those benefits by the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) even though he or 

she is also entitled to social security benefits or a civil service 

annuity, or both.

    (b) Action when benefits are suspended. If the railroad retirement 

benefits are suspended, the RRB sends premium notices requesting direct 

remittance, to be made in accordance with the rules set forth in Subpart 

D of this part.
