Questions and Answers
By Jimmy VanBevers
Tyler District Manager
Social Security Administration
Q. After receiving disability benefits
for several years, i returned to work in
1978 and the benefits stopped. Unfor-
tunately, I have had to stop working
because my condition has worsened. I
know my disability payments will begin
again without a waiting period - but
what about Medicare?
A. There is no waiting period for
reentitlement to Medicare if a worker's
disability benefits begin within 5 years
of the date they ended, 7 years for a
disabled widow, widower, or adult
disabled before 22. If, during the first
period of disability, a person did not
complete the 24-month Medicare
waiting period, any months for which
he or she did receive disability benefits
count toward meeting the 24-month
requirement in the second period of
disability.
Q. I am a 66-year-old woman and
have never worked under social
security. I know I can't get social
security, but can I get Medicare?
A. You can sign up for medical In-
surance. The monthly premium is $9.60
through June 1981. You are also eligible
to purchase hospital insurance. The
monthly premium is $78 through June
