Help With Medicare Assistance
Are you currently enrolled in Medicare and need some assistance?
The Social Security Administration may be able to assist you. They offer a program to help individuals who enrolled in Medicare with their costs. This program is not a replacement for enrolling in a Medicare Part D drug program. If you're eligible, you can get extra help to pay for the monthly premiums, annual deductibles, and co-payments related to the Medicare Prescription Drug program. However, you must be enrolled in a Medicare Prescription Drug plan to get this extra help.
The guidelines for eligibility and the application are located HERE as well as contact information for any questions you may have. To see if you're eligible, go HERE.
