Learn About Getting Extra Help
Medicare eligible beneficiaries with limited income and resources may qualify for Extra Help to pay for their prescription drug costs. If you qualify, Medicare could pay up to 75% percent of your drug costs including monthly prescription drug premiums, annual deductibles and coinsurance. Additionally, those who qualify will not be subject to the coverage gap or a late enrollment penalty. Many people are eligible for these savings and don’t even know it.
