Can you have Medicare and another plan at the same time?
I'm in the United States and getting Social Security Disability payments each month. I think I am eligible for Medicare next year, I'll have to look that up. I'm wondering, do you have to enroll in Medicare if you are eligible? Or does it just happen automatically? Could you 'opt out' if you wanted to (although I probably wouldn't)? Also, I have insurance through my husband's job. Can I carry both Medicare and Blue Cross-Blue Shield at the same time? If so, can I choose which one is primary and which is secondary? I'm sorry to bombard you with questions! Thanks!
