My premiums went up to $578 per month in 2022. Medicare, which is socialized medicine for seniors, is still cheaper than any private plan. Thank God for big government!!

My wife is turning 65 in three months. She is a non-working spouse and should qualify under my work record. ( I get premium free part A). She gets an error message that she does not qualify to apply online. I understand that because she is attempting to qualify as a non-working spouse under my record, she cannot apply online? Is that correct?
