How To Apply

Are You Eligible for Medicare Health Care?

See if Medicare is right for you

The Medicare expert at Senior Benefits NY understands that the Medicare process can be tricky. There are different rules and requirements that you must meet, and they’re not always cut and dry. The good news is we can help you determine if you‘re eligible and teach you how to enroll.


You can apply for Medicare through the Social Security Administration's website, by phone or in person at your local office. Once processed, you'll receive your Medicare card by mail. Coverage usually starts on your 65th birthday or when you become eligible due to disability. For additional coverage like Medicare Advantage, Part D or Medigap, enroll separately according to their specific enrollment procedures.
