    Medicare is available to most people, but not quite everyone. Anyone who has paid Social Security taxes for 40 quarters throughout their working lives are eligible for free Part A Medicare at age 65, as would their spouse be at age 65, whether or not they worked outside the home. Disabled persons are eligible for Medicare after two years of receiving Social Security Disability benefits. There are other categories of persons who can get Medicare, including some who can pay for it rather than receive Part A free. But again, not quite everyone in the US can get it.
