A friend of mine got accepted for social security disability last July
He says that they told him he is not eligible for the medicare until one year after he was accepted. That does not sound right to me because my son got his SS medical right away as well as my old boyfriend, and many of my neighbors that are on social security disability.
He goes days without hardly being able to move.
Does this sound right?
Do you know what their procedure is with this?
Well it does not "sound" right, but often I find people misunderstand many things
He is about brain fogged really bad. I try to tell him he must of heard wrong.
I get tired of going round and round explaining the simplest things to him and
I don't exactly have time to go up there with him to get the story straight.
I was hoping somebody has the exact thing on it.
His comprehension is really gone. Just yesterday he told me that he bought a heating massage cushion for his truck for $50.00. I told him he could have got an adapter for the cigarette lighter for $10.00 and used his other heater massage cushion. That he would have saved $40.00 and he was so dense with even understanding that. He kept saying but I bought the other heating pad three years ago. I kept asking what does that have to do with buying a new one instead of an adaptor.
Is he covered by an employer health plan as part of a LTD policy. If so, that can dictate when Medicare must be elected.
No he has absolutely no health plan.
I am sure he isn't getting something right but I won't even know how to go about figuring it out for him
All I see that seems to apply to him is
Have received disability benefits from Social Security for at least 24 months,
Section 1 page 5
But he says they told him one year.
I don't understand why everybody I know got it right away and he isn't
He is in his late 50's
