Are you turning 65 years old?
- There is a period of seven months offered to enroll for Part B. This is called your “Initial Enrollment Period” It’s possible for you to sign up three months before, and up to three months after your 65th birth month. If you decide to join after your 65th birthday, your plan won’t start until the following month. For instance : Should you turn 65 in January, and you wait until February to subscribe to Part B, your Part B effective date will be April 1st. You will not have Part B coverage until the 1st of April.. Your local Social Security Administration Office can assist you in registering for your Part B coverage..
- If you miss registering for Medicare Part B during your 7 month window, you’ll be penalized 10% for every 12-month period for which you don’t have Part B. When you enroll in Part B, you’ll owe 10% of the existing Part B premium. If your premium for your Part B coverage is $100 a month, you will pay a total of $110 a month, every month.
- The Part B enrollment period commences on the first of January and ends March 31st, in case you miss this Enrollment period, you would need to wait until the following year.
- July 1st is when your Part B coverage will start, you will not have any Part B coverage before the seven month window comes to an end.
- Your coverage starts on your Part B effective month, and you’ll not have to pay for your coverage until this date.
- The first month this could go into effect is your 65th birth month, unless your birthday is on the 1st of the month, in which case, your effective date will be the 1st day of the month before your birth month.
- You have up to three months after your Part B effective date to register for a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or Medicare Advantage Plan..
- There’s a possibility you can be refused coverage in the event that you do not sign up for a Medicare Supplement Plan within half a year of starting your Part B coverage. In this time frame however, you will receive coverage as a “Guaranteed Issue”
Losing Existing Coverage or Are You Retiring?
