Generally, your first chance to enroll in Medicare is when you turn 65. This is called your Initial Enrollment Period. It lasts for 7 months, starting 3 months before you turn 65, and ending 3 months after the month you turn 65. The date your coverage starts depends on which month you sign up during your Initial Enrollment Period. Coverage always starts on the first of the month.
Talk to HICAP if you have questions about your Initial Enrollment Period or if you would like help understanding your coverage options. .
