Who needs medical part B?

1. Individuals turning 65: Most individuals become eligible for medical part B when they turn 65 years old, regardless of their current health status. It's important to sign up during your Initial Enrollment Period to avoid late enrollment penalties.
2. People with specific disabilities: Individuals under the age of 65 who have been receiving Social Security disability benefits for at least 24 months become eligible for medical part B automatically. If you have end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), you are also eligible for part B.
3. Those with other health coverage options: Some individuals may have other health coverage, such as through an employer or union. In such cases, they can choose whether to enroll in medical part B or delay it until their other coverage ends. However, some employer coverages may require enrollment in part B to avoid any potential penalties or gaps in coverage.

Remember, it's crucial to carefully assess your specific situation, consult with relevant healthcare providers or a Social Security representative to ensure you understand your eligibility and make the right decision regarding medical part B enrollment.
