I just had my social security hearing and the Judge made a bench decision in my favor, my questions are about Medicare.
I read that you have to be receiving disability benefits for 24 months, at that point you will automatically receive, Medicare part A and B, and you will be paying the $96.80 premium for part B, they will be back paying me for almost 30 months, will the past 24 months of those 30 count toward my my 24 month period required to receive Medicare ? I will not hit 65 during of this time, I am only 50.
OR
Will I have to apply for Medicad, for 2 years until I receive 24 months of disability pay ?
Thanks for any insight you might be able to share..
