AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would let people under age 65 who have been diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease buy in to Medicare if they would otherwise qualify once they turned 65. Enrollees would get the same benefits as people with Medicare Parts A, B, and D, including the option of a Medicare Advantage plan with drug coverage. They would pay the same premiums as a 65-year-old who buys in to Medicare. Each Medigap insurer in a state would have to offer at least one supplemental policy to these enrollees, and the Department of Health and Human Services would have 30 days to update its Medicare information materials.
