The Medicare program is often confused with the Medicaid program, which is a separate state program and provides different types of benefits to disabled individuals. For people who qualify for Medicare coverage, one of the biggest questions is about the 2-year waiting period before benefits are administered. Disabled individuals cannot go without medical insurance and treatment for 2 years.
Our law firm can help you find other options for health care if you are faced with this two year waiting period, including low cost or free clinics in the area. We can also provide information about if and when you can expect Medicare benefits to kick in for your situation.
