5 Things You Might Not Know About Medicare
1. You may be eligible even if you’re still working.
When you turn 65, you may be eligible for Medicare Parts A and B, even if you are still working.
2. There are four parts available — and each covers something different.
Parts A, B, C, and D, and each covers a variety of health expenses, such as hospital visits, doctor appointments, physical therapy, and prescriptions. Part A covers hospital care and Part B covers outpatient care and some medical supplies, therapy and treatment. Together, they make up "traditional Medicare". Part C is Medicare Advantage plans offered by private companies and Part D is prescription drug coverage, also offered by private companies.
3. Your initial enrollment period (IEP) is based on your birthday.
This period includes the three months before you turn 65, the month you turn 65, and the three months after.
4. Many different factors may affect which plan is best for you.
It’s important to consider your health history and lifestyle before choosing your plan.
5. Thinking ahead is key.
Anticipating your health needs and those of your family will help you determine what works best for you.
