Medicare Benefits Payable, Regardless Of Employment Medicare bentefits are pay able at 65 even if a person con tinues to work full time and is not collecting his social security benefits. "People nearing 65 whether or not they plan to retire, should visit the social security office at 324 W. Market St.," Charles H. Myers, Greensboro social security district manager, said today. It is important, he noted, to apply during the 3 months before you turn 65 to be sure that your Medicare protection will begin as soon as you reach 65. Otherwise, you may lose coverage of some of your medi cal bills. Myers explained that Medi care is divided into two parts. "One part is hospital insur ance," he said. "This is paid from social security contribu tions made during your work ing lifetime. Virtually every employed person now reaching 65 is eligible for and has paid for hospital insurance protec tion. And if a worker is eligi ble, so is his wife at age 65. This part of Medicare helps pay for your care in a hospital and for certain kinds of care you may need after you leave the hospital. "But that is only half of the Medicare story," *i? continued. "The other half is the supple mentary medical insurance that helps pay doctors' and surgeons' bills and a wide variety of other medical expenses. You pay half the cost of the medical insur ance through a premium of $4 a month. The government pays the other half. It is particularly important that you apply for your medical insurance cover age before you reach 65 since this is a voluntary program with limited enrollment periods," said Myers. Mr. Myers said doctor bills were the main medical expense covered by this insurance. How ever, he added, medical insur ance under Medicare covers many other medical services and supplies. These range from home health care visits to am bulance service and the rental or purchase of durable medical equipment. Mr. Myers urges those who want more information about Medicare, and those who are nearing 65, to visit his office. BETHEL A.M.E.
