Not sure why we would need to extended it beyond retirement age. You should be working till you are 65 unless you have a disability or other qualifying event in which case you would be eligible for that reason.
We don't need to give people who decide they want to retire early Medicare. They made the choice and funding their own healthcare should have been part of their calculations to decide if they could retire early.
There are plenty of people out there retired well before age 65.
And many can manage their mAGI for large subsidies...one "early retirement" blogger I follow so far in 2021 has paid under $150/month for ACA coverage for his entire family but with the latest stimulus legislation expects to pay $0/month going forward.
That's a heck of a lot cheaper than paying even just Medicare Part B premiums.
That sounds incredible.
