Medicare Prescription Assistance 

Are High-Cost Prescriptions Taking Too Much From Your Monthly Budget?  

For many people on Medicare, the cost of certain brand-name medications can take a significant bite out of a fixed monthly income.

If you receive Social Security and are paying out-of-pocket costs for prescription medications, there may be assistance programs that can help eligible individuals access certain high-cost brand-name medications at little or no medication cost.

Eligibility requirements apply, and not every medication or individual will qualify. However, for those who do qualify, the potential savings can be significant.

If prescription costs are putting pressure on your budget, it may be worth finding out whether assistance is available.

Could You Qualify for Prescription Assistance?  

Eligibility depends on several factors, but this type of assistance is designed for certain individuals who are enrolled in Medicare, receive Social Security income, and meet applicable income guidelines.

Eligibility may also depend on the medications you take and whether assistance is available for those prescriptions. Individuals enrolled in Medicaid or receiving the Low Income Subsidy may not qualify for this particular program.

Because every situation is different, a simple eligibility review is the best way to determine whether assistance may be available to you.

How Could Prescription Assistance Help?  

For eligible individuals, prescription assistance programs may provide access to certain high-cost brand-name medications through available manufacturer assistance programs.

For someone currently paying hundreds of dollars each month for a qualifying medication, reducing that expense could make a meaningful difference in the household budget.

The amount saved will depend on the medication, individual circumstances, and available assistance. Program or service fees may also apply even when qualifying medications are provided at little or no medication cost.

The goal is simple: help determine whether there may be a more affordable way to access the medications you need.
