The correct response is:
Not unless they worked in the United States for at least a decade and paid into the Social Security system for that time.
To be eligible for Medicare based on work history, individuals must have worked and paid into the Social Security system in the U.S. for at least 10 years (40 quarters). Simply being older than 65 does not make someone eligible for Medicare if they have not met the work and contribution requirements.
