How does Medicare coverage work?

Medicare is the Federal health insurance program for Americans age 65 and older, some disabled Americans, and individuals who have end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The Original Medicare Plan, which is available nationwide, is a fee-for-service plan that is managed by the Federal Government. It pays for many health care services and supplies, but it won’t pay all of your health care costs.

Generally, you should enroll in Medicare when you first become eligible. If you choose to enroll at a later time, you will pay a lateenrollment penalty.

If you already have health insurance from an employer or another source, talk to your benefits administrator about whether you should join Medicare or not while still covered.
