Could you please explain to me what the Medicare tax surcharge is for 2024? Specifically, how does it differ from previous years and what are the implications for taxpayers? Is it a percentage increase or a flat fee? Additionally, are there any exemptions or thresholds that taxpayers should be aware of to potentially avoid this surcharge?

The Medicare tax rate stands at 1.45% of an individual's total earnings. This percentage applies universally to all taxpayers, regardless of their income bracket.

Starting from January 2024, there's a threshold adjustment for the Medicare tax. Individuals earning over $200,000 annually, and married couples filing jointly with earnings exceeding $250,000, will be subject to an additional 0.9% tax on their Medicare contributions.

This additional 0.9% tax is solely levied on the individual or couple's earnings that exceed the aforementioned thresholds. It does not apply to earnings below these limits.
