Understanding Medicare For Veterans

Medicare eligibility requirements apply to veterans the same way they do other enrollees. Medicare is available to veterans over the age of 65 or under 65 if they have certain disabilities.

You’ll automatically be enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B if you receive Social Security or Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) benefits for at least four months before your 65th birthday.

If you’re not automatically enrolled in Medicare and you delay signing up for Part B, you may have to pay higher monthly premiums.

Medicare is for people who:

• Age 65 or older
• Under age 65, disabled and on Social Security for 24 months
• Any age with end-stage renal disease or ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis)

5 reasons why you may want to consider making changes to your Medicare plan:

1. You want to save money - whether your Medicare plan price increased or your medications were reclassifed so they cost more, their may be cheaper options available that can save you money.


2. Your health situation has changed - if you have experienced a significant change in your health that is not covered by your current plan, you may want to change to a plan that has you covered.


3. The cost of your perscription drugs has increased - if your medications were reclassifed and now cost you more money, then you may want to change to a plan that provides more converage on your medications.


4. You want better quality medical services - if your not satisfied with your current medical services, then you may want to find a plan that that offers more premium services.
