Original posts is 4/12/12 so the original poster is past their enrollment period.

I believe it is an eight month window to sign-up for Part B as part A, you are automatically enrolled in at 65. It sounds like the OP should get a Medicare Advantage Plan as they indicate they are healthy. To do without insurance is pure folly as one never knows when they might get sick and need it.

It seems like this person would be duplicating their coverage and doesn't sound cost effective. However, I would check to see if their federal plan would pick-up cost that are not covered my medicare and see if it worth keeping.
