How to Apply for Medicare
- The easiest way to apply for Medicare is online via the Social Security website. The application process is straightforward and takes only about 5 to 10 minutes. Just visit the Social Security website and follow the application links.
- Apply by phone, contact Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 and inform the representative that you would like to apply for Medicare. Depending on your specific enrollment situation, they may need to mail you some forms to complete. These forms are relatively simple, but if you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to give us a call. We assist clients with this process every day and are more than happy to guide you through it.
- To get the application processed quickly, the best option is to apply in person at your local Social Security office. To find the nearest Social Security office, visit the Social Security website. When you are at the office, be sure to ask for a printed confirmation showing you have enrolled in Part A and Part B. This confirmation will allow you to complete your Medicare Supplement and/or Part D applications.
