More from Marsie Frawley on SSI

[Guest guest]

Hi all:

I asked Marsie another question...what follows is her answer first, with the

question below...

Great question. I always recommend that folks be proactive when it comes to

SSA/Medicare. By tracking the credits themselves they are in a better position

to contact SSA to 'help' them understand that the beneficiary is now eligible

for disability benefits on their own record. :)Medicare is pretty good about

contacting the individual when their 24 month waiting period is up.

Take care!

Hi Marsie:

Just curious...are families responsible for tracking the work quarters or does

SSA inform a person when he/she has sufficient credits to qualify for medicare?

Thanks again!
