"Z" has got this correct.
In addition, Medicare Part A covers hospital expenses, while Part B covers doctor's charges.
If you went on Soc Sec prior to age 65, you will go on Medicare automaticallyy at age 65. If that is not the case, you must apply for Medicare about 3 months prior to you 65th birthday. My company benefits dept is already "prepping" me for this.
I will be right behind you, since I turn 65 in May of next year.
Where did all the time go ?
