How do I enroll?
When you become qualified for Medicare, you’ll either be automatically enrolled or you’ll need to manually enroll. The difference between these two comes down to whether or not you’re receiving Social Security Income. You are not required to draw Social Security Income to enroll in Medicare.
Automatic Enrollment
Automatic Enrollment
If you are currently drawing Social Security Income prior to turning age 65, you will be enrolled into Medicare Parts A & B automatically, and 90 days before the month of your 65th birthday you’ll receive your red, white and blue Medicare card as pictured below, and your Part B premium will be automatically deducted from your monthly Social Security check.
Manual Enrollment
If you are not drawing Social Security Income when you
approach age 65, then as early as 90 days prior to the month of your 65th birthday, you’ll need to manually enroll into Medicare by contacting the contacting the Social Security Administration.

Medicare can only assist you once you are enrolled in Medicare, but the Social Security Administration determines your Medicare eligibility and processes your enrollment.
This process can be completed by phone at 800-772-1213, online at

, or by visiting a local Social Security office if there is one available in your county.
You can also contact one of our licensed professionals at Avila Medicare Solutions for help with the online application at no cost to you.
