How to Enroll into Medicare: Two Different Scenarios

Jacob Torres • February 11, 2021

Receiving Social Security Benefits

If you are already receiving social security benefits you will automatically be enrolled into Medicare Part A and Part B when you turn 65 years old (the first of the month). 

Enrolling in Part C and D-you will still need to select and enroll.

Not Receiving SS Benefits?

If you are not currently receiving social security benefits you will not be automatically enrolled in Medicare. 

You must sign up during a Medicare enrollment period.

First Option: Your Initial Enrollment Period
Second Option: Special Enrollment Period
Third Option: General Enrollment Period 

If you need help understanding your options please give us a call at 727-688-3330.
