That\u2019s why many choose a\u00a0Medicare Advantage Plan, known as \u201cPart C.\u201d These plans are available through\u00a0private insurance companies, and they typically also have\u00a0prescription drug coverage\u00a0included. You can sign up for these plans when you first become\u00a0eligible\u00a0for Medicare or during the annual\u00a0Open Enrollment Period running October 15th through December 7th.<\/p>\n<p>There is also\u00a0Medicare Supplement Insurance, sometimes referred to as\u00a0Medigap. These plans are also offered by private companies, and\u00a0plan coverage\u00a0varies.\u00a0Medigap\u00a0covers\u00a0Medicare costs\u00a0that are left up to the patient (ex.\u00a0coinsurance\u00a0and\u00a0deductibles), but can also pay for some services not covered by Medicare.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div class='av-flex-placeholder'><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-9wkhy-005ff0f47ff9cd997272053fe86a7a1f\">\n#top .flex_column_table.av-equal-height-column-flextable.av-9wkhy-005ff0f47ff9cd997272053fe86a7a1f{\nmargin-top:0px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n.flex_column.av-9wkhy-005ff0f47ff9cd997272053fe86a7a1f{\nborder-radius:3px 3px 3px 3px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-9wkhy-005ff0f47ff9cd997272053fe86a7a1f av_two_fifth  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-middle av-animated-generic right-to-left av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3a1mz8-5aba20d61afc8eec6af4562e9332b325\">\n.avia-image-container.av-3a1mz8-5aba20d61afc8eec6af4562e9332b325 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-3a1mz8-5aba20d61afc8eec6af4562e9332b325 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-3a1mz8-5aba20d61afc8eec6af4562e9332b325 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-17  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-1139 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-1139 avia_image ' src='https:\/\/rcgroupbenefits.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/couple-on-bench-square.jpg' alt='' title='couple-on-bench-square'  height=\"500\" width=\"500\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!--close column table wrapper.

There are some exceptions to this rule, however. If you are under age 65 and already receive\u00a0social security\u00a0disability benefits, you are automatically enrolled in\u00a0Medicare parts A\u00a0and B on your 24th month of disability.\u00a0\u00a0You will also be enrolled in\u00a0Medicare parts A\u00a0and B automatically if you are receiving\u00a0retirement benefits\u00a0from Social Security when you turn 65.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t enroll in a\u00a0Medicare plan\u00a0during the\u00a0initial enrollment period, you could experience a delay in the start of your\u00a0health coverage. If you\u2019re still working and have\u00a0health coverage\u00a0through your employer, or you have coverage because your spouse is still working, there is a\u00a0special enrollment period upon leaving the plan,\u00a0during which you can get signed up and not incur a penalty. It\u2019s important to sign up as soon as you are\u00a0eligible\u00a0so your\u00a0coverage starts\u00a0promptly.<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about Medicare and how you can get the coverage you need,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/rcgroupbenefits.com\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">contact<\/a>\u00a0Reliable Consulting Group today!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><div class='av-flex-placeholder'><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-9wkhy-74411f8ca44e5c69f3d2a4b2561389de\">\n#top .flex_column_table.av-equal-height-column-flextable.av-9wkhy-74411f8ca44e5c69f3d2a4b2561389de{\nmargin-top:0px;\nmargin-bottom:0px;\n}\n.flex_column.av-9wkhy-74411f8ca44e5c69f3d2a4b2561389de{\nborder-radius:3px 3px 3px 3px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-9wkhy-74411f8ca44e5c69f3d2a4b2561389de av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-27  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-middle av-animated-generic left-to-right av-zero-column-padding  '     ><\/div><\/div><!--close column table wrapper.
