11. I was correcting an inaccurate statement by the poster.

SHE said SHE would not be eligible. That was false. Whether anyone likes it or not it is just a matter of time before Medicare is raised to 67. The full retirement age for SS has already been raised to 67. The original purpose of medicare was to have health insurance in line with SS. So as it stands right now people will be eligible for medicare before becoming eligible for SS. Congress never intended that and it will be changed at some point to reflect that.
