I'm not a legal expert, but I can provide some general information. Medicare is a federal health insurance program primarily intended for individuals who are 65 or older. However, it can also cover certain people with disabilities who are under 65 and have been receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits for at least 24 consecutive months.
After the 24-month waiting period, individuals with disabilities who meet the criteria can be eligible for Medicare coverage, including Part A (hospital insurance) and Part B (medical insurance). Part A typically does not require a premium, while Part B generally requires a monthly premium.
It's important to consult with a professional or contact the Social Security Administration (SSA) for specific information about your eligibility and how to apply for Medicare based on disability. They can advise you on the exact requirements and assist with any questions you may have.
