Welcome to Medicare
As a JPS patient turning 65, we’d like to provide you with some information regarding Medicare enrollment and continued benefits offered at JPS.
Who is Eligible for Medicare?
Generally, Medicare is available for people 65 or older, younger people with disabilities and people with End Stage Renal Disease (permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or transplant). Medicare has four parts:
- Part A (Hospital Insurance) helps pay for inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, home healthcare, and hospice.
- Part B (Medicare Insurance) helps cover medically necessary services like doctor visits and outpatient care. Part B also covers many preventive services (including screening tests and shots), diagnostic tests, some therapies, and durable medical equipment like wheelchairs and walkers. Together Part A and Part B are also referred to as “Original Medicare”.
- Part C (Medicare Advantage Plan [MA]) is another way to get your Medicare benefits. I combines Part A, B, and sometimes D (prescription drug coverage). MA plans are managed by private insurance companies approved by Medicare. These plans cover medically necessary services. However, plans can charge different co-payments, co-insurance, or deductibles for these serves than Original Medicare.
- Part D (Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage) helps pay for outpatient prescription drugs. Part D may help lower your prescription drug costs and protect you against higher costs in the future.

- Begins three months before your 65th birthday
