#Creditable Coverage
CHAPTER 4 Creditable Coverage Period
Determinations and the Late Enrollment Penalty
- Creditable Coverage is Prescription drug coverage (for example, from an employer or union) that’s expected to pay, on average, at least as much as Medicare’s standard prescription drug coverage. People who have this kind of coverage when they become eligible for Medicare can generally keep that coverage without paying a penalty, if they decide to enroll in Medicare prescription drug coverage later Publication 11109

I was told from Social Security back in March 2018 that all I needed was part A Hospital & B Doctor Visits when I no longer have coverage though work.
They did ask me what prescriptions I was taking & I was not taking any so they said all I needed was part A&B.
Now I am being told that I will have to pay a penalty because I did not have plan D.
I would have gotten part D back then if they told me, but again all they said I needed was part A&B
What is the right way to appeal this matter?
Hearsay and what someone was told, are things that scare me very much. I do not listen to it. I do not accept it. I’m afraid! Here’s our webpage on the dangers of hearsay. This is why, I follow up my phone conversations with an email giving links to the full details of what we spoke about. This is why, I don’t take phone calls, unless I’m told in advance, what the questions will be, so that I can look up and get an authoritative answer.
Here’s the form to file an appeal, including where to mail it to. Getting wrong information from a Government Agency is not on the form.
Check our research here about someone that went to Social Security, got all signed up on the very last day and then Social Security lost the paperwork.
