Continue Learning About Medicare

Original Medicare^‡ has two parts.

Part A covers mainly inpatient care, such as care you would receive at a hospital or a skilled nursing facility.
Part B covers routine medical care, such as when you visit your doctor.
They do not cover prescription drugs you may need when you’re not in the hospital.
They do not provide 100% coverage for your costs, such as deductibles, copays, and coinsurance.

Even if you’re healthy now, Medicare Supplement insurance, Medicare Advantage, and Prescription Drug plans will help you control your out-of-pocket costs. More than 80% of people with Original Medicare^‡ have additional coverage.⁴

You may want to consider delaying your enrollment in Medicare until you’re no longer covered by your employer’s healthcare plan.

The decision for when to enroll in Medicare can be complicated. If you’re turning 65 soon, be sure to contact your employer’s benefits administrator before making any changes. You can also discuss your options with an Anthem licensed agent.
