Do you have to apply for Medicare separately ?

Once they approve your disability status you are automatically eligible for Medicare after 2 years. They will send you notices
I agree 100% with others that when you do choose a Medicare plan, do not go with Medicare Advantage. It will limit your choice of doctors to a narrow network. If you can afford the premiums, then go with original Medicare and a supplemental plan. That allows you to see any Medicare accepting doctor in the US
