Medicare Overview

When are you eligible for Medicare?

Individuals not yet receiving Social Security Benefits will need to sign up for Medicare Part A and Part B during the Initial Enrollment Period (IEP), which is 3 months before their 65th birthday, including the month of their birthday and the 3 months after their 65th birthday.

​

Individuals who are already receiving Social Security Benefits or Railroad Retirement Benefits will automatically be enrolled in Medicare Part A and Part B the first day of the month they turn 65.

​

Under age 65 with certain disabilities on Social Security Benefits or Railroad Disability Benefits and/or individuals with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis ALS.
