REQUEST YOUR MEDICARE CARD

APPLYING FOR YOUR MEDICARE CARD

New to Medicare

If you are newly eligible for Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) and Part B (Medical Insurance), you may apply online. Because you may have to pay a premium for Part B coverage, you can turn it down. You do not have to claim Social Security retirement benefits apply for Medicare. If you don’t currently receive any Social Security income, you may get a bill for your Part B Medicare.

Let us guide you.

​

If you’re eligible at age 65, your initial enrollment period begins three months before your 65th birthday, includes the month you turn age 65, and ends three months after that birthday.

 

If you choose not to enroll in Medicare Part B and then decide to do so later, your coverage could be delayed and you may have to pay a higher monthly premium for as long as you have Part B.

 

 You can call Social Security toll-free at 1-800-772-1213 for more information.
