Are You Eligible for Medicare

Generally, you are eligible for Medicare if you or your spouse worked for at least 10 years in Medicare-covered employment and you are 65 years old and a citizen or permanent resident of the United States.If you are not 65, you might also qualify for coverage if you have a disability or with End-Stage Renal disease (permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or transplant).

Here are some simple guidelines. You can get Part A at age 65 without having to pay premiums if:

  - You already get retirement benefits from Social Security or the Railroad Retirement Board.
‍
  - You are eligible to get Social Security or Railroad benefits but have not yet filed for them.
‍
  - You or your spouse had Medicare-covered government employment.


If you are under 65, you can get Part A without having to pay premiums if:

  - You have received Social Security or Railroad Retirement
‍
  - Board disability benefit for 24 months. You are a kidney dialysis or kidney transplant patient.
‍
While you don’t have to pay a premium for Part A if you meet one of those conditions, you must pay for Part B if you want it. It is deducted from your Social Security, Railroad Retirement, or Civil Service Retirement check. If you don’t get any of the above payments, Medicare sends you a bill for your Part B premium every 3 months.
