1 Objectives communicate and guide development of assessment, instructional methods, and content materials. 2  Objectives communicate the focus of learning that enables instructors and students to work toward a common goal.  The teacher can use objectives to make sure goals are reached.
Medicare Part A benefits begin the first day of the month you turn 65. If your birthday is on the first day of the month, your benefits will begin the month before you turn 65. If you enrolled in Medicare Part B when you applied for retirement, your Part B coverage will begin at the same time.
For example: If your 65th birthday is October 20, 2014 and you automatically qualify for Medicare, your Medicare effective date would be October 1, 2014. If your birthday is on the first day of the month, Medicare Part A and Part B will be effective on the first day of the prior month. So then, if your 65th birthday is October 1, 2014, your Medicare effective date would be September 1, 2014.
