Get Your "Ticket to the Dance"!


Picture
In order to enroll into a Medicare Advantage or Medicare Supplement plan, you must first have what we like to call your "Ticket to the Dance"! Meaning you must have original Medicare, your Part A (hospital insurance) and Part B (medical insurance). You should obtain your Part A and Part B red, white, and blue Medicare ​card during your Initial Enrollment period which is typically three months before the month of your 65th birthday, the month of your 65th birthday, or the three months after your 65th birthday. You must have this card in order to sign up for a Part C (Medicare Advantage plan) or a Supplemental Medicare plan.

​I have my Part A & Part B. What's Next?

Well that's simple! Your work is done now it's time to call us here in the office to schedule an appointment so that we can assist you in making the best choice for you! Remember, ​"Our goal is to help you make your Medicare decision the right one, while making it easy for you!"

When & How To Sign Up For Medicare Part A & Part B

Some People Get Part A & Part B Automatically

​You may qualify for Medicare Part A and Part B if one of the following applies to you:
  • I'm already collecting Social Security
  • I'm under 65 and have a disability
If you're automatically enrolled, you'll get your red, white, and blue Medicare card in the mail three months before your 65th birthday or your 25th month of disability.

Some People Need to Sign up for Part A & Part B

You need to sign up for Part A and Part B if:
  • You are not already receiving Social Security benefits (for example because you are still working).
  • You have End Stage Renal Disease
If you currently have coverage through a current or former employer, it is important to understand how your current coverage works with Medicare before making any decisions, give us a call.

When Can I Sign Up for​ Part A & Part B?

This could be during your initial enrollment period, the general enrollment period, or during a special enrollment period due to a qualifying circumstance. The right timing will be different for everyone. Learn more about when you can sign up for Part A and B. Feel free to give us a call to discuss when the right time is for you to sign up and how to avoid the Part B late enrollment penalty.
