I may work a year past 65. What would I sign up for if I wanted to keep my employers insurance until I retire but still not miss the signup period? Thanks, Subscribed. 👍
Hi! Part A is hospital or inpatient coverage and part b is outpatient (doctors appointments, specialists, outpatient procedures) most people do not pay for Part A.. it’s what we get for free after working for 10 years working social security taxes. If you have employer insurance you can delay part B coverage. Most people opt to enroll for part A because it is free most of the time and it’ll just become secondary to your Medicare part A & will cover what Medicare doesn’t pay for
@@MedicareonVideo Yes, I have the number, but I'm still deciding and don't want to be penalized. Exactly how long do I have? My part A and B officially starts August 1st of this year. Is the time requirements for signing up for part D the same as signing up for a supplement plan, 3 months before, the month of, and 3 months after your birth month?
Thank you for your wonderful video Keith so informative I really appreciate all the work you put in so concise and easy to listen to. And thanks to Henri for calling me back so quickly and helping me out with the electronic paperwork, I appreciate you both!
You do not have to sign-up for Part A. There isn't much benefit in not signing up, unless you are contributing to an HSA account. You can, however, delay both until you come off your group plan.
@@MedicareonVideo Confused 😳 you have to sign up at 65 or face a penalty even if your working to 67 like SS wants? And yet at the same time you don’t have to sign up until you retire 😳. 67 and 8 months won’t they say “Sorry your penalized because you didn’t sign up at 65?
@@MedicareonVideo So if I am working past 65 and have creditable healthcare I should sign up for medicare part A? its free right? And there is no penalty....? I'll be contacting one of your agents in a couple months .
Thank you I turned 65 in April but am in excellent health and am still employed full-time in U.S. aerospace defense. I have great insurance. When I turn 67 I can work full time and collect full Social Security with no penalty! If my great health continues I desire to work until I'm 72 (bank all extra money) then retire! How do I handle Medicare then?? Blessings to you for any answer you may give!!
Hi Rachel! As long as your employer has more than 20 employees and your insurance is employer-sponsored, you won't have to do anything with Medicare until you retire and leave that insurance. At that point, you will have your employer complete the L564 form to submit with your Part B application to prove you had creditable coverage.
Thank you Henri Pregaldin, for once again coming to my aide immediately when I asked for help changing my plan. It is so wonderful how quickly you helped me make the right choice for me. Do not know what I would do without you!
Julia Jones helped me so much getting through the complicated process of Medicare enrollment. I am very satisfied with the plans we have agreed upon and feel confident that they are the right one’s for me!!
I turn 65 this coming April… and plan to start my social security then…do I need to file for social security first… then Medicare? Not sure what takes place first. Thank you P S is their a charge for you services?
Hi Eddy! No charge for us! You don't have to be on Social Security benefits in order to get Medicare. If you do enroll in benefits prior to age 65, you will be automatically enrolled in Medicare. If you don't start your benefits beforehand, you just submit an application for Medicare.
Very informative, thank you. I have a question and I apologize if it has been covered in the video and I missed it. I turn 65 in November but I am staying fully employed for another year. I have health / dental vision coverage through my job so am I correct in thinking that I only have to enroll in Medicare Part A until I fully retire?
Hi Mick- as long as your employer has 20+ employees and your insurance is active employer-sponsored group insurance, you can delay your Part B until you retire. That would qualify you for a Special Enrollment Period (SEP). You don't have to enroll in Part A now, but there is no harm as long as you are not actively contributing to an HSA account.
@@MedicareonVideo thanks for the speedy reply. There are over 20 employees where i work so that part is good. I do put $200 a month into my HSA account at the moment so would it be sensible to cancel that and enrol in Part A or just wait till i fully retire at the end of 2024 and then apply for medcare?

I still don’t see, if you are healthy and not taking medication why would you want to pay 510 in the three months after your birthday if you don’t have to.
Thank you for your comment! I understand that navigating the Medicare website can be overwhelming and time-consuming. While automatic enrollment at age 70 may seem like a convenient option, it's important to note that Medicare eligibility typically starts at age 65. Waiting to enroll may result in penalties or gaps in coverage. However, I'm here to help make the process easier for you. If you have any questions or need assistance with understanding your Medicare options, feel free to reach out.
I asked a Democrat, "Which is the bigger cause of Americans voting against their own best interest, Ignorance or apathy? His answer was, "I don't know, and I don't care."
Especially funny since the reality of it is Republicans who vote for politicians that want to twilight Social Security and privatize Medicare which would be disastrous. Hopefully someday (probably not in my lifetime) Americans will wise up and demand cradle to grave healthcare in return for their hard earned tax dollars along with the many other government benefits that the rest of the world's taxpayers enjoy in the industrialized western nations.

Website shows me automatically enrolled in a and b. The paper with my card on it has a mail in opt out of b card
You will be automatically enrolled in both Part A and Part B if you are drawing Social Security benefits prior to age 65.
Impressive insights! Your expertise shines through your content.
What’s the difference between between part A& B Medicare? And do I even need Medicare if I pay for my own insurance

Im turning 65 in August and am already on SS. How long, or when do I have to sign up for a part D plan, since I'm going reg MC with a supplement?
Once you have your Medicare number, you can sign up for a Part D plan.

I have been using the VA medical system for a while now how does turning 65 and Medicare affect me?
I'm gonna be working and have healthcare at 65. But I still need to sign up for medicare part A right?

Is part A automatic?
I do not want anything else.
Part A is no longer automatic. You can apply for just Part A and Part B later.
