65 Must Act
People nearing 65 who are not already receiving social security benefits should contact the Culpeper social security office 2 or 3 months before their birthday, Bruce A. Hundley manager said recently.

People not already getting monthly benefits have a limited time to act to be sure their full Medicare protection begins at 65. If they don’t act within the 3-month period before the month they reach 65. their Medicare medical insurance protection can be delayed from 1 to 3 months. Medical insurance may be delayed for a year or more if
I a person fails to act within the 3 months after his or her 65th birthday month, and the monthly premium may be increased.
