My husband is of an age to retire, but doesn’t plan to do so in the next five or so years. We know that he should be eligible for medicare. Is it possible to have both medicare and his health insurance at work where the expense of his medical bills would be less or non existent?

I’m a college student and work a part-time on-campus job. My paychecks are usually less than or around 500 each month. I haven’t had social security or medicare taken out of my paychecks for 8 months, but just this last month, they deducted social security and medicare. Why are they starting now? Is it due to a certain amount I have earned? If not, what?
