 If you already get Social Security benefits, you do not need to sign up for Medicare. We will automatically enroll you in Original Medicare (Part A and Part B) when you become eligible. We will mail you the information a few months before you become eligible.

 Yes, it's possible to be eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid, which is often referred to as "dual eligibility." Medicare is the federal health insurance program, while Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that provides health coverage for people with limited income and resources.
 You can make changes to your Medicare coverage during specific enrollment periods. The Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) takes place every year from October 15th to December 7th. During the AEP, you can switch between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans, change your Part D prescription drug plan, or enroll in a new one.
 Enrolling in Medicare is crucial to ensure you have health coverage when you become eligible. The process varies depending on your circumstances. If you're already receiving Social Security benefits when you turn 65, you'll be automatically enrolled in both Part A and Part B. If you're not receiving Social Security benefits, you can sign up for Medicare during your Initial Enrollment Period (IEP). The IEP begins three months before your 65th birthday and lasts for seven months.
 Medicare is a federal health insurance program primarily designed for individuals aged 65 and older, but it also covers some younger individuals with specific disabilities. It's divided into several parts, with Part A covering hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice care, and some home health services. Part B covers outpatient services, doctor visits, preventive care, and durable medical equipment. Part C refers to Medicare Advantage plans offered by private insurance companies, and Part D covers prescription drug benefits.
