Do I need to Sign up for Medicare at 65?

If you have coverage through your employer you may not need to sign up for Part B to avoid a 10% penalty later on. You should check with your insurer by calling the customer service number on the back of your health insurance card and asking them two questions:

"Will I get a penalty if I don't enroll in Part B?"

If they say yes you do not need to enroll in Part B but you may want to. Please contact us for a full explanation.

"Is my coverage creditable for Part D?"

If they say no, you will need to enroll in Part A and a Part D prescription drug plan to avoid a late enrollment penalty of 1% per month for every month you go without creditable coverage when you do join a Part D plan.
