How to enroll in Medicare

Most people enroll through Social Security. Use this checklist to avoid timing mistakes and keep your confirmation details organized.

  1. 1
    Check your enrollment window

    Most people qualify during their Initial Enrollment Period around age 65. Different rules apply if you're still working or have employer coverage.

  2. 2
    Sign up for Part A and Part B

    Social Security handles enrollment for both parts. You can apply online, by phone, or visit a local office.

  3. 3
    Save confirmation details

    Keep all confirmation numbers, letters, and dates. These documents are important if you need to verify coverage or resolve any issues later.

  4. 4
    Consider additional coverage

    After Part A and B, review options like Medicare Advantage, Medigap supplements, or Part D prescription coverage based on your healthcare needs.
