If You’re On Medicare, Here’s What You Should Know About The Flu Shot
Medicare eligibility begins at age 65, and signing up on time can help you avoid premium surcharges. But if you’re working at 65, you get a bit more leeway.
If your employer has at least 20 employees and you’re still working and covered under that plan when you turn 65, you can delay your enrollment in Medicare (specifically in Medicare Part B, which allows you to avoid the Part B premium while you’re covered under your employer’s plan).
During the Medicare open enrollment period, you can: Switch from Original Medicare to Medicare Advantage (as long as you’re enrolled in both Medicare Part A and Part B, and you live in the Medicare Advantage plan’s service area).
Fast Fact: More than 55 million Americans rely on Medicare for their health care coverage. Every day, another 10,000 people turn 65, making them eligible for the government-provided health insurance program.
Once you enroll in Medicare, you can no longer contribute to a health savings account (HSA), although you can continue to take tax-free distributions from your HSA to pay for medical expenses.
Fast Facts: You can enroll in Medicare Part A anytime after turning 64 years and nine months old.
February Fast Fact: Most Medicare-related terms have multiple names.

February Fast Fact: Most Medicare-related terms have multiple names.
If you receive Social Security benefits at the time you turn 65, or apply for them at a later date, the Social Security Administration (which handles Medicare enrollment) will automatically enroll you in both Part A and Part B and send your Medicare ID card through the mail. But (if you have primary insurance from a current employer, as described above) you can decline Part B, following the instructions that Social Security includes in its letter that accompanies your card and meeting the deadline.
You do not need Part D prescription drug coverage if you have “creditable” coverage from elsewhere — such as from a current or former employer, COBRA, the federal employees health benefits (FEHB ) program, the military’s TRICARE programs, the Veterans Affairs health system, or individual health insurance you’ve purchased yourself. “Creditable” coverage means that Medicare considers it to be of equal or better value than Part D.
Medicare Part A helps pay for the costs of inpatient care in the hospital and short-term skilled nursing facilities — including a semiprivate room, bed, meals and nursing care. It also pays for some home health services and hospice care, at no charge to you if you meet the conditions for coverage.
