    If you're not turning at least age 65, you can only go on Medicare if you're disabled or have ESRD (end-stage renal disease) and meet the under 65 Medicare qualifications.

    If you're under 65 and qualify for Medicare Parts A & B, I would suggest looking into securing a Medicare supplement and Part D prescription drug plan or a Medicare Advantage plan.

    I hope the information is helpful - please feel free to contact me for assistance with your coverage and if you have any other questions. Thanks very much.

    Most people cannot qualify for Medicare until they reach the age of 65. If you get Medicare before the age of 65 that means you are disabled and are receiving a Social Security Disability check each month. Even though you can receive a Social Security retirement check at age 62 you still will not qualify for Medicare until you turn 65.
