Let’s Get Started
Where Do I Start?
Enrollment for Medicare Part B begins with Social Security. Once you are enrolled in Medicare A and B, we’ll help you pick a secondary plan best suited to your needs.
How Do I Enroll in Medicare?
Part B Enrollment takes place through Social Security NOT Medicare. You can enroll by calling the Social Security Administration office, mailing a Part B Enrollment form, or by creating or logging into your online Social Security account. Please visit SSA.Gov. SSA.Gov’s home page will provide links to apply for Medicare Part B.
Do I Need Medicare Right Now?
Most people enroll in Medicare when first eligible. There are different enrollment periods for different circumstances. If you are turning 65 and enrolling in Medicare, you can enroll three months before your birthday, the month of, and three months after your birthday. This is known as your initial enrollment period. If you are still working or have employer coverage (through your employer or your spouse’s employer), you may delay Part B of Medicare.
