The Medicare benefit is big news for people with limited incomes. Many people are eligible for these savings and don't even know it. If you qualify for extra help, you can save even more. In fact, if you’re on a limited income, you may qualify for reduced brand prescription drug co-pays. And if you have both Medicare and Medicaid, your prescription costs will be even lower! If you get extra help from Medicare to help pay for your Medicare prescription drug plan costs, your monthly plan premium will be lower than what it would be if you did not get extra help from Medicare. The amount of extra help you get will determine your total monthly plan premium as a member of our Plan. The following table shows the monthly plan premium ranges for qualifying plans in your area, if you receive extra help.
