MEDICARE PRESCRIPTION DRUG COVERAGE (MEDICARE PART D)

2021 HIICAP NOTEBOOK 6-7
Note: When applying for LIS/Extra Help directly with Social Security Administration, income
limits are higher for those beneficiaries that have dependent relatives living with them and
for whom the beneficiary (or spouse) provides at least ½ of their support.
Note: Beneficiaries whose income makes them eligible for Full Extra Help, but whose assets are
too high for Full Extra Help, can still receive Partial Extra Help if their assets fall below
Partial Extra Help limits. They will receive a mixed subsidy of Full Extra Help with the
premium and Partial Extra Help with their drug cost-sharing.
Note: Sometimes Extra Help recipients run into problems at the pharmacy counter if their Extra
Help status fails to display in the pharmacy’s computer system. When this happens, they
may be charged the “regular” cost sharing amount. The Best Available Evidence (BAE)
policy can be used to help beneficiaries get their copays adjusted to the correct amount.
