The road to application
This is for those who do not get Medicare automatically. For those who already receive Social Security, Railroad Retirement Board, or disability benefits, there’s no application needed.
But that goes without saying – if you fall into one of these groups who are automatically enrolled, knowing that you are automatically enrolled will save you time and effort.
The best time is now
There’s no time like the present when signing up for Medicare. If you’re just turning 65, you have three months before to three months after the month you turn 65 (a 7-month time frame). This is the absolute best time, because if you’ve worked at least 40 tax quarters in the U.S., you can get inpatient medical coverage (Part A) with a $0 per month premium. This is the one time when late fees don’t apply to you.
If you have missed this window, sooner is still better. The General Enrollment Period lasts from January 1 to March 31, with your coverage starting July 1.
The first step
The first step can be in many directions – you could go to your local Social Security office, visit us, call us, or, sign up online.
Going to the Social Security office is the most time-consuming of all options. You may be standing in line for hours at a time. You may drive to your local Social Security office, only to find that it’s not open at all. And in the worst case, you could be spending those hours in line, and then be told that they handle enrollments by appointment-only.
When you visit or call us, we’re ready to get you set up with the best plan possible, and we do it fast. Whether you visit us in person or call us on the phone is up to you.
Going forward
Once you call us, you’ll be connected with an expert agent. During this phone call, you’ll receive a free quote and have the ability to choose which plan works best for you. We are proud to offer our guidance, as we have friends and family of our own who are going through this very process. You’re more than a client to us.

Applying for Medicare has never been easier. The program has come a long way since it was first introduced over 50 years ago, as has its signup process. Our history is similar – we started out with humble beginnings as an insurance agency in Wichita, Kansas, and now we are an agency on the rise with nationwide outreach.
