Medicare Part B - Late Enrollment PenaltyA person that is eligible for Medicare but opts out of Part B may besubject to a 10% per year Part B penalty Penalty is waived if beneficiary has coverage through a group policy basedon active employment 2013 Towers Watson. All rights reserved. Proprietary and Confidential. For Towers Watson and Towers Watson client use only.

Medicare Eligibility & ActiveEmploymentFor employers with 20 or more employees, group coverage is primary forMedicare beneficiaries who are still active, and Medicare issecondary. Therefore, active beneficiaries don’t have to enroll in Part B and willnot be penalized when they decide to retire. When they decide to retire,beneficiaries should enroll in Part B three months prior. This will insure that theycan enroll in a Medicare Supplement plan and have it effective as soon as theirgroup coverage ends. If active and covered under the group health plan, employee does not enroll in Medicare Part Bor select a Medicare supplemental plan(s) until they retire or lose coverage.12 2013 Towers Watson.
