Hi Max,

Medicare is a series of government-funded insurance programs for senior citizens and certain other people. You are not required to get Medicare when you turn 65, nor is your existing health insurance automatically canceled. However, most often, you should strongly consider signing up for Medicare, as it provides an excellent benefit for seniors at no or very low costs. For further details, you should check out the Government's medicare information website at http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10043.html#part1

Not usually, If employed, you should still have your employee health insurance, but any doubts, contact your HR department to be sure.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to sign up for Medicare PART A within the window
you can defer PART B if you are still working.
