My sports doc recently warned me to stay off medicare as long as possible because it is hard to find docs in our area who take it (he does). I have the option of staying on my husband's health plan until he retires. I qualify for Medicare this coming Feb.


You can end up with a higher Medicare premium if you don’t start at 65. Make sure you qualify for on-ramp of the exceptions..

I have not looked into this closely yet, but I have read that if you qualify for an employee plan there is no penalty for waiting. Is that not correct?
