Title: Is it normal?
Post by: appleface on January 09, 2014, 02:20:18 PM: Hi, All:

March 2014 will be my three years transplant anniversary. I have been working all those years. Accoeding to the SSA rule, my medicare will be stopped by the end of march 2014. However, I received premium bill for the period until 04/31/2014 today . I did not receive the medicare termination letter from SSA yet. Could anyboday share the information that when did she or he receive the termination letter prior to the actual termination date due to the transplant ? shoukd I just pay the extra month premium? thanks.

Are you going to be able to cover your Medication on your own?

???
