With health care costs on the rise, Extra Help and Medicare Savings Programs offer help where it is needed most…in the wallet!
More than 90,000 Medicare beneficiaries in Florida may be eligible for Extra Help. For those who qualify, this program will help pay prescription drug costs for beneficiaries enrolled in a Medicare Part D plan. This can include drug plan remiums, deductibles and co-pays.
Extra Help may save you up to $3,900 per year! Many people may also be eligible for help paying their Medicare Part B premiums.
Can you use some Extra Help? To find out if you qualify and to get help with the application, call the Elder Helpline at 1-800-963-5337.
