I am a long way off from 65, but wanted to know.... I believe that normally to be elligible for Medicare, one must be a) over 65 and b) have worked 40 quarters. But what if I remain a housewife until retirement age? Basically, what I want to know is if my USC husband's medicare benefits (he has worked more than 40 quarters already) will apply to me too when we we have reached the correct age. If not, how do all the previous generations manage where it was traditional that only the man works?

I would have loved to answered your question but the social security websiteseems to be down at the moment. I am almost certain the answer is yes, but click the link and follow the governmental maze to verify.

Here is more, hope it helps.

Am I Eligible for Medicare When I Reach 65 If I Never Worked Outside the Home?





Many citizens, both men and women, have not worked sufficient hours to qualify for Social Security benefits. However, those people still qualify for Medicare benefits upon reaching the age of 65. Those persons automatically qualify for Medicare Part A and Part B.

I'm not pointing at the sites but it appears if you have a disability you qualify before age 65.
