Medicare and Social Security Guidance Notes

The article explains Medicare coverage for vitamin B injections used to treat illness like pernicious anemia, and notes no coverage for preventive use. It covers spousal Social Security rights, stating wives can receive benefits on their own or their spouse’s record but not both, and that the larger payment applies. It also reminds a wife aged 66 who taught high school to file an annual earnings report with the Social Security Administration by April 16, 1973.
