Are You Missing Out on Cost Saving Programs?

Prescription Drug Coverage

Extra Help with Prescription Drug Coverage

The Medicare Part D Extra Help program (sometimes called the Low-Income Subsidy or LIS) helps pay for your Medicare drug coverage. If you get Extra Help, your monthly premium will be lower or free, and you’ll pay less at the pharmacy.

 

Save on Medicare Premiums

The Medicare Savings Programs help pay for your monthly Part B premium. You may also qualify for help paying other costs in Medicare.

Get information on Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) to help with utility costs; SNAP (nutrition assistance); EPIC (NYS Prescription Assistance Program), SSI (Supplemental Security Income).

 

Call the Westchester County Department of Senior Programs and Services Medicare Information Line at (914) 813-6100, Monday to Friday, 8:30 am – 4:30 pm and speak with one of our trained counselors to see if you qualify for any of these benefit programs.
