To register for Medicare online, you will need to go to the Social Security website. Before applying, make sure you have all the information you need. Use this checklist from the Social Security website to help guide your way.
While you are registering online, Medicare will ask you to validate your address. Medicare may send mail that contains important personal account information to your address, so it’s important to validate your address for Medicare.
Next, create a username and password that you will remember and that you can use to sign-in to MyMedicare.gov each time you go to the website. Remember to provide information to reset your username or password if you ever forget it.
What Happens After I Register Online?
Once you’ve finished registering for Medicare online, you will be able to sign-in to MyMedicare.gov and begin using the website. If you provided your email address while registering for Medicare online, Medicare will send you a confirmation email and will also mail you a confirmation letter.
