The age for Medicare benefits has not changed - it remains at 65. However,
Social Security Eligibility age changes. It is being raised from 65 to 67; phased in gradually and effects everyone born after 1937. People in that age
group will have to wait longer to collect full benefits. For a chart showing complete age requirements see website:
