Still Working? Planning for Medicare After You Retire

Get Clear, No-Pressure Medicare Guidance—Before You Need It
If you’re still working and covered by employer insurance, you may not need Medicare just yet—but planning ahead can help you avoid late penalties, coverage gaps, and unnecessary stress later on. If you are considering working past 65, it’s important to understand how your choices affect your Medicare options.
I help individuals understand how Medicare works when you retire, what steps to take, and when to apply—so you feel prepared when the time comes.
There is no obligation to enroll. This is simply an educational conversation.

Do I Need Medicare If I’m Still Working?
If you’re 65 or turning 65 and still working, the answer depends on:
- The size of your employer
- Your current health coverage
- Whether you plan to retire soon or later
In some cases, you can delay certain parts of Medicare without penalty. In other situations, enrolling on time is important—even if you’re still working.
Understanding your options before you retire can help you avoid costly mistakes later.
What Happens When You Retire?
When you retire or lose employer coverage, you may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period that allows you to apply for Medicare without late penalties.
During this time, you’ll want to understand:
- When to enroll in Medicare Part A and Part B
- How to transition from employer coverage to Medicare
- Your options for Medicare Advantage, Medigap, and Prescription Drug Plans
- Important deadlines and required steps
I help explain these topics in clear, easy-to-understand language so you know what to expect.
