If you are under 65, you can get Medicare Part A without having to pay premiums if you have:
- Received Social Security or Railroad Retirement Board disability benefits for 24 months.
- End-Stage Renal Disease and meet certain requirements.
While you don't have to pay a premium for Part A if you meet one of those conditions, you must pay for Part B if you want it. The Part B monthly premium in 2010 is $110.50.
If you have questions about your eligibility for Medicare Part A or Part B, or if you want to apply for Medicare, please contact Social Security or visit or call your local Social Security office. You can also get information about buying Part A as well as Part B if you don't qualify for premium-free Part A.
To get SSA disability, you must prove that your illnesses cannot be controlled or cured and that they make it impossible for you to do any sort of work for which you are suited based on your age, education and experience.
