Apply for Medicare Rx Extra Help...

If you are one of millions of people with Medicare who have limited income and resources, apply now for Extra Help through Medicare’s Prescription Drug Coverage. At the same time, you can also start an application for the Medicare Savings Programs and find out if you qualify for other valuable benefits programs. Even if you weren't eligible before, 2010 is the time to check again - some of the Extra Help rules have changed.
