MediCare真係幾複雜,當中有計要工作一定年期,有唔計,要睇埋其他福利資格,以下係其中嘅條件,但加埋MediCal、低收入、傷殘又有其他考慮。。。
You are eligible for Medicare if you are a citizen of the United States or have been a legal resident for at least 5 years and:

You are age 65 or older and you or your spouse has worked 0-29 quarters in Medicare-covered employment. You must enroll as a voluntary enrollee and pay the full Part A monthly premium. Note: Low-income programs can help you pay these premiums if you meet the income and asset levels.

You have amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) — also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease — and have received your first month of SSDI payments.
