Some people who reach 65 In
1968 or later will not have full
medicare protection unless they
have worked under social secur
ity. In pointing out the work re
quirements, Nell Quarles, Field
Representative of the Decatur So
cial Security Office, explained
that the Medicare program is di
vided into two parts, Hospital In
surance and Supplementary Med
ical Insurance.
Hospital Insurance, known as
“Part A”, provides hospital care
for up to 150 days during a bene
fit period, with the patient paying

a small proportion of the charges.
To be eligible for this protection,
a person reaching 65 this year
must either:
(1) Have 3 quarters of social
security work credit, or
(2) Be entitled to monthly so
cial security benefits as the de
pendent or survivor of an insured
worker.
For those who reach 65 after
1968, the amount of work credits
needed increases by 3 quarters
each year. Those who reach 65
In 1969 will need six quarters of
social security worker credit.
In 1970, nine social security work
credits will be needed. Eventu
ally, the amount of work required
for Hospital Insurance protection
will be the same as that required
for monthly cash benefits.
Quarles emphasized that most
65 year old wives and widows will
get benefits on their husband’s
work records. Under these con
ditions, the woman has full Hos
pital Insurance protection even
though she may have no social
security work.
Supplementary Medical Insur
