MEDICARE 101 - Turning 65

First step for MEDICARE COVERAGE at 65

Medicare is health insurance for people 65 or older. You’re first eligible to sign up for Medicare 3 months before you turn 65. You’ll sign up for Medicare Part A and Part B through Social Security (SS). Visit ssa.gov (the quickest and easiest way) or call 1-800-772-1213 or sign up in person at a SS office near you. Here’s where you will apply to start getting benefits from SS (or the Railroad Retirement Board). Once you’re approved to start getting benefits, you’ll automatically get Part A coverage. You’ll choose if you want Part B coverage when you apply for benefits. In order to have Medicare you must sign up for Part B. Once you sign up (or are approved for benefits), you’ll get notified by mail with your Medicare card (30+ days).

Now you have Medicare parts A & B effective the first day of birthday month. Part A is hospital. Part B is medical Both A & B cover 80% of Medicare covered services (hospital and medical).

FYI - Medicare Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) is seven months surrounding your birthday (three months before 65th birthday, birthday month, three months after birthday month) and is the first opportunity to acquire Medicare. This is a very important window for your healthcare so please be aware.

Contact me when you receive your Medicare card. Next is a decision to have Original Medicare or Medicare Advantage to cover the remaining 20% of Medicare covered services.

regularly.

To get to the Medicare plan details there is a button that says ‘see plans’. What plans you can sign up for depends on zip code so put it in when you get there. On your phone please click on the Medicare button and scroll all the way down to find the ‘see plans’
button. Displays differently on a computer vs phone. I am not sure about an ipad since I don’t have one.
