Insurance Solutions With You In Mind
Understanding Medicare & Employer Coverage in Philadelphia
Turning 65 doesn't mean you have to retire or enroll in all parts of Medicare right away. Many Philadelphia residents continue working past age 65, and understanding how Medicare coordinates with employer coverage can help you avoid costly mistakes and penalties.

Planning ahead can help make your Medicare transition easier.
Can I Keep My Employer Insurance After 65?
In many cases, yes.
Important factors include:
✓ The size of your employer
✓ If you're contributing to a Health Savings Account (HSA)
✓ Whether coverage is through your job or your spouse's job
✓ Whether Medicare becomes primary or secondary coverage
Every situation is unique, and educational guidance can help clarify your options.
Questions to Ask Before Turning 65
✓ Do I contribute to an HSA?
✓ Do I want to delay Medicare Part B?
✓ Will I continue working past age 65?
✓ Will my spouse remain on my employer plan?
✓ How many employees does my company have?
Understanding Medicare & Employer Coverage
Every situation is unique, and educational guidance can help clarify your options.
Small Employers
- Generally, fewer than 20 employees.
- Employer coverage rules may differ, and Medicare may become the primary payer.
Large Employers
- Generally, 20 or more employees.
- Many individuals can delay certain Medicare enrollments while maintaining qualifying employer coverage.
Retiree Coverage
- Retiree insurance often works differently from active employee coverage.
- Understanding the coordination of benefits is important before making decisions.
Health Savings Accounts (HSA) & Medicare
Many people don't realize:
Contributing to an HSA after enrolling in Medicare may have tax implications.
Questions to consider:
✓ Do you plan to continue working?
✓ When do you intend to enroll in Medicare?
✓ Are you currently making HSA contributions?
Not always. The answer depends on your employer coverage and individual situation.
Some individuals with qualifying employer coverage may be able to delay enrollment without penalty.
In many cases, yes, but every employer plan is different.
A Special Enrollment Period may allow eligible individuals to enroll in Medicare after active employment ends.
No. Educational consultations are provided at no direct cost.
