Re: Need Guidance on signing up for Medicare through SS

 

I did it online and it was easy peasy.

 

Go to Medicare.gov and set up your account. 

Go to SocialSecurity.gov and set up a MySocialSecurity account.

They will have options for you to apply for benefits. 

 

I never had to make a phone call. The local office called me once during the process.

@chrystaltree  she's only interested in Medicare for now. Not SS.

 

Yes and she can do that online too.

We went in person to our local office. They have appointments which we made online & wait time was short & agent very helpful & knowledgeable. Our situation was a bit complicated but sign up was easy & process seamless
