There are a few other medicare qualifying events.And like SS, it pays for itself.How about cons quit obstructing so that it gets written correctly?
Exactly the same thing happened when Medicare was passed. The difference was that we didn't have an entire party intent on bringing down the country. The parties worked together and the result is that Medicare now works very well and within budget.
Same is true of health care insurance and all other kinds of insurance as well.
Medicare turns down more people than private insurance. Now that insurance has become more of a government agency, I suspect more will be turned down
Unless you have some evidence, any credibility you might have had, and that is very little, is gone:
When you turn 65, you become eligible for Medicare if you:
or
- Collect or qualify to collect Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits
How you enroll at age 65 depends on whether or not you are already receiving Social Security retirement benefits or Railroad Retirement benefits.
- You are a current US resident and either
- A US citizen or
- A permanent US resident having lived in the US for 5 continuous years before you apply for Medicare
How much you have to pay for your Medicare coverage depends on your work history (if and how long you have paid Medicare taxes). Everyone has to pay a monthly premium for their medical insurance (Part B). Most people with Medicare get their hospital insurance (Part A) premium-free.
For questions regarding Medicare eligibility, call the Medicare Rights Center's free national helpline at 800-333-4114.
I don have one question, did you lie knowingly, or are you just a parrot who repeats the bullshit you hear form Lush Limbaugh or Shun Hannity?
If you are diagnosed with end stage renal disease, or if you've been on disability for 2 years, as long as you remain on it after that.
Medicare is not for people outside of the qualifiers you, and I mentioned.
If you have those qualifications, nobody gets turned down.
There are higher premiums though, for people who are retired, but still have high non retirement income.
But in reality, most medicare folks have somewhere around $90-$110 taken out of their social security checks every month, which is a screaming deal for medical insurance
