What extra help is available?
Medicare provides "extra help" to pay prescription drug costs for
people who have limited income and resources. Resources include your savings
and stocks, but not your home or car. If you qualify, you will get help paying
for your Medicare drug plan’s monthly premium and prescription co payments
or coinsurance and this extra help will count toward your out-of-pocket costs.
The table below tells how much you will pay for a monthly premium, depending of
your level of help. (This does not include any Medicare Part B premium you may
have to pay.)
