There are many state programs available to you. If you have been turned down for the Federal plan please check with the numbers below in your state.

Your income and assets may not be low enough for the Federal Program, but some of the state programs have income thresholds that are not as low. Please check with your state SHIP (State Health Insurance Assistance Program). They have counselors there that can help you.

If you qualify you will not have a premium, your co-pays will be between $1 and $5 each and you will NOT have “donut hole”.

At the end of each year, Social Security conducts a process called “redetermination”. They look at your income and assets to see if you will qualify again for the next year. They will send you a letter that YOU MUST return to them within 30 days. If you do not return this letter called “Review of Your Eligibility”, Medicare will assume that you no longer qualify for the “extra help” and your assistance will end December 31st.

If you have recieved this letter and not responded, please call or visit your local SS office today!!

We can also get you on a plan that covers all your drugs with no premium. Go to www.MyPartDusa.com and fill out a worksheet, tell us your situation in the comments section and one of our licensed and certified Senior Consultants will call you back.
