Technically, you don't have to enroll in Medicare. It's just very cost advantageous for healthcare expenses. Original Medicare (Parts A & B) pay for about 80% of your healthcare expenses and you can have the other 20% covered by adding a Medigap plan - a Part D plan can cover prescription costs (you would have cost-sharing for prescriptions).
If you're not on group coverage through your employer (if you're still working) and still have a traditional under 65 health plan, you will likely be spending a lot more on your health insurance compared to your Medicare coverage.
Please feel free to contact me for further assistance. Thanks very much.
