If you continue working at UC past age 65, you are not required to sign up for Medicare Part B since federal law stipulates that your UC group employer plan will be your primary coverage. When you retire, you must immediately enroll in Medicare Part B. For more information, see the Medicare Factsheet [PDF] and/or contact Social Security at 800-772-1213.
