MEDICARE ENROLLMENT
1. AUTOMATIC ENROLLMENT: If you are already receiving Social Security benefits when you turn 65, you will typically be automatically enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B. You will receive your Medicare card in the mail. 2. MANUAL ENROLLMENT: Manual Enrollment: If you are not receiving Social Security benefits when you turn 65, you need to manually enroll in Medicare. You can do this online through the Social Security Administration’s website, by visiting your local Social Security office, or by calling Social Security. 3. SPECIAL ENROLLMENT PERIODS (SEPs): There are specific circumstances that may allow you to enroll in Medicare outside of your IEP. These include situations like delaying retirement, losing employer coverage, or moving to a new area. Be aware of SEPs to avoid late enrollment penalties. 4. MEDICARE ADVANTAGE (PART C) AND PART D: There are specific circumstances that may allow you to enroll in Medicare outside of your IEP. These include situations like delaying retirement, losing employer coverage, or moving to a new area. Be aware of SEPs to avoid late enrollment penalties.
