Would an individual who retires at Age 62, be eligible for Medicare?

According to the SSA Department, an Individual retiring at Age 62, will not be eligible for Medicare Benfefits that are based on retirement. These benefits take effect only after an individual has reached Aged 65.

However, if an individual did choose to retire at age 62, he or she may be able to continue to have medical insurance coverage through their own employer or purchase it from a private insurance company until age 65 and then become eligible for Medicare.
