8 When to purchase Medicare Part B Option 1 You can postpone purchasing Part B until you decide to retire. There is no late enrollment penalty if you postpone Part B enrollment due to primary coverage through an employer group or trust fund. 8
9 When to purchase Medicare Part B Option 2 If you are still working, you can purchase Part B. Medicare becomes the secondary payer.
