Provides a brief explanation of the Social Security retirement, survivors and disability benefits programs, as well as Medicare benefits, with particular emphasis on retirement benefits and Parts A, B and C of the Medicare program. It details eligibility requirements and explains how monthly benefits amounts are based on the Social Security taxes paid during working years. This book is an excellent reference resource for persons who are nearing retirement.

This edition reflects the cost-of-living adjustment and the related increase in benefits and the taxable earnings base, as well as other variables set forth by the Social Security Administration for the upcoming year. It also includes tables of sample benefit amounts, who is covered under the Social Security program, who is liable for Social Security tax, how a worker acquires "insured status" for benefit eligibility, the conditions of benefit entitlement, the effect of early or delayed retirement on benefits, the services covered under Medicare Parts A, B, C and D, including a list of covered and noncovered categories and the rules concerning how Medicare pays for the benefits it provides.
