How Medicare Works
Medicare is made up of several parts that you can choose from to fit your needs. Here’s an overview of how each of these parts work together.
Original Medicare
Once you turn 65 , you’re eligible for Original Medicare—Part A and Part B.
Most people get premium-free Part A for free which covers essential hospital services—and buy Part B to cover essential doctor services.

You’re eligible to enroll 3 months before your 65th birthday. If you have certain disabilities, you may qualify earlier.
​
Part A is premium-free if you (or your spouse) have paid Medicare taxes for 10+ years.
​
* The standard monthly premium for Medicare Part B will be $174.70 for 2024

Additional coverage
Parts A and B only cover the essentials, and charge significant out-of-pocket costs, so many people use additional plans to reduce these costs or to increase coverage.
One way to do this is by using either a Medicare Supplement Insurance or Advantage plan.
