Medicare is not one single plan. It is a system with different parts that you piece together based on your health needs, budget, and preferences. Some people build it piece by piece and others use a bundled option.
If you choose a plan that turns out to be a poor fit and then face a serious illness, you're not locked in permanently. Medicare has an annual Open Enrollment Period each fall where you can switch plans for the following year.
After losing employer health coverage, you generally have 8 months to sign up for Medicare Part B without a late penalty. This is called a Special Enrollment Period.
You can apply as early as 3 months before the month you turn 65. Your Initial Enrollment Period is a 7-month window: 3 months before your birthday month, your birthday month itself, and 3 months after.
Yes, in many cases you can delay Medicare if you're covered by a spouse's active employer plan. But the rules depend on the employer's size, and getting them wrong can trigger permanent penalties.
