What Is Medicare?

Medicare is health insurance that caters to people who are 65 years old and above, as well as people under 65 with disabilities. It also covers people of any age with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) (permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or a kidney transplant).

There are three main parts of Medicare that provide individuals with the insurance coverage they need as they get older. Not sure if Medicare is right for you, or need assistance choosing the best plan for your specific needs? Contact our experienced team at Brokerage Specialists today!

When Can You Enroll In Medicare?

  • If you are below 65 years of age, you may automatically get Medicare enrollment if you have received social security or Railroad Retirement disability benefits for 24 calendar months.
  • Some individuals are automatically enrolled in Medicare. If this is the case, you will get your red, white, and blue Medicare benefits card in the mail, and your Medicare coverage will start either on the first day of the month when you turn 65 or on the first day of your 25th month getting disability benefits.
  • Additionally, if you are below the age of 65 and have ALS/Lou Gehrig's disease, your Medicare benefits will start the same month your disability benefits begin. There is no 24-month waiting period.
