Medicare open enrollment is October 15, 2021 – December 7, 2021.

At age 65, you’re eligible for Parts A and B, even if you still work. You may be eligible for Medicare because your spouse is a qualified wage earner. A qualified wage earner is someone who worked for 10 years and had Social Security taxes withheld. If you’re under 65 and have a disability, you may also qualify for Medicare Parts A and B. When you become eligible for Medicare, you qualify for an Initial Enrollment Period (IEP). You have seven months to enroll in a Medicare or prescription drug plan. This period begins three months before you turn 65 and extends three months after the month you turn 65.
