This is a common question that many folks have:
“[I]f I am working, do I need to sign up for Medicare when I turn 65?”
And, yep, you guessed it, the natural follow-up question is, what parts do I need to sign up for, Part A, Part B, Part D, Part C, Part G…some, none, or all of the preceding?
Despite the alphabet soup of Parts A, B, C, D, and G of Medicare coverage, Medicare.gov has done a good job of providing an interactive tool for helping one determine when they need to sign up for Medicare if working past age 65. Please find Medicare’s interactive tool here (https://www.medicare.gov/basics/get-started-with-medicare/medicare-basics/working-past-65).
