If You Have Limited Income And Assets
Find out if you qualify for:
- Medicaid (which includes drug coverage)
- The Extra Help Program to help pay for the cost of Medicare Part D coverage.
- State drug assistance programs (including ADAP if you have HIV)
Look for Insurance Coverage
You cannot purchase separate insurance to fill gaps in Part D coverage. However, there are a few options:
- Some Medicare Part D plans offer coverage without a donut hole. They tend to be more expensive than other plans but may be worth it if your drugs are expensive.
- A spouse's insurance.
- An employer plan that offers a drug plan that coordinates with Medicare Part D. Unlike state assistance programs, any payments an employer makes toward your drugs don't count toward your Catastrophic Limit.
