Q&A with James Wallish
What are the reasons why I should work with a Medicare agent?
Answer: You should choose to work with a local Medicare insurance agent versus a nationwide broker because they have a much better understanding of your local hospital network. How plans work how to access the ancillary benefits and more. It’s always easier to have a single point of contact with insurance questions.
What's the process for signing up for Medicare if I'm already on disability benefits?
Answer: Signing up for Medicare went on disability can be a little tricky. If you are on Social Security disability, your Medicare will be automatically assigned to you by the Social Security administration after two years whether you are 65 years of age or younger.
If you are a disability benefits from the state or from your workplace, you will need to sign up for Medicare, using the traditional methods to do this. You need to be aware of the initial enrollment periods, which are the three months before your birthday month the month of your birthday and the three months following. I recommend signing up online using the registration tool available at “my social security” on the SSA website.
