For Medicare Prescription Drug plans, individuals who have limited assets and income may be eligible for Extra Help, often referred to as Low-Income Subsidy.
In order to automatically qualify for Medicare Extra Help, you must be one of the following:
To find out if you qualify for Extra Help for Medicare, the Social Security Administration will need to know your income, assets, and savings. They also need information on whether or not you are married and living with your spouse. Furthermore, you must fill out a specific application (Form SSA-1020). It can be found on www.socialsecurity.gov. In addition, some individuals automatically receive Extra Help without even applying through Social Security.
Individuals who qualify for Extra Help will pay:
For those who have Full Extra Help, they would receive 100% Prescription Drug (Part D) premium subsidy and would pay no more than $8.35 in 2018 for each prescription drug their Medicare plan covers (no deductible).
For those with Partial Extra Help, the Prescription Drug (Part D) premium would vary according to their income and they would pay no more than 15% of coinsurance for each prescription drug their Medicare insurance covers (with no more than $83 annual deductible).
In order to determine if you are eligible for Extra Help with prescription drug plan costs, you will need to provide the following information to Social Security. If you and your spouse are married and living together, they will also need your spouse’s income information.
Documents that will best help you apply for Medicare Extra Help:
Medicare Savings Programs are federally funded programs that are controlled by each individual state and are different than Extra Help. These specific programs are for individuals and families with limited income and resources. They help pay your Medicare Part A and/or Part B premiums, and some Medicare Savings Programs may also help pay copays, deductibles and coinsurance.
Here are the four Medicare Savings Programs:
