Are there any other exceptions to the Medicare Part B enrollment requirement for Postal Service retirees and their covered family members?  

Yes, you may qualify for an exception if you: 

  • Demonstrate that you reside outside the United States and its territories  
  • Are enrolled in health care benefits provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs  
  • Are eligible for health services from the Indian Health Service 

Covered family members may have their own exception, even if you do not, if they can demonstrate meeting any of these exceptions. Individuals will be responsible for providing proof of eligibility for the applicant exception(s) to the designated agency.
