My wife turns 65 soon and we are trying to figure out how all this works.
My wife is not eligible to receive SS payments because she did not work enough.
Questions: 1. Do we have to have her enroll in both Medicare part A and B to keep Tricare?
2. Can she just enroll in part A and keep Tricare.
We have tried calling different Tricare people, but keep getting transferred to different people. We do have a call into the local base to see if they still have a Tricare rep there, but of course we go a recording that everyone was at lunch. Will try again later.
Thanks for your help
