Cómo ser elegible

Si tiene 65 años o es mayor de 65 años y usted o su cónyuge pagaron los impuestos de Medicare durante al menos 10 años, usted es elegible para Medicare y puede solicitar la cobertura Medicare Parte A gratis. While most people will not pay a premium for Part A, there is a monthly cost for Part B. Generally, your Part B premium will be automatically deducted from your Social Security, Railroad Retirement or Civil Service Retirement benefit check. If you don't receive any of those benefit checks, Medicare sends a monthly bill.

If you're under 65 and have been receiving disability benefits from Social Security for two years, you'll be automatically enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B.
