Q1. All individuals are automatically enrolled in Medicare A & B at age 65.

Please choose an option

True

False

Correct! Not everyone is automatically enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B at age 65. Automatic enrollment occurs if you're already receiving Social Security or Railroad Retirement Board benefits. If not, you'll need to enroll manually during your Initial Enrollment Period, which starts three months before your 65th birthday and ends three months after. To avoid penalties or gaps in coverage, make sure you enroll on time. If you need assistance, call us at 800-864-8890.
