Jack,
No, I have MEdicare starting in my late 30s through Social Secruity Disability. I was forced to file for disability when my employer provided insurance via COBRA refused to pay for my surgery. I found an Aetna Medicare Advantage plan and they ended up paying for 2 level lumbar Prodisc surgery in 2008.
