Medicare Savings Programs
Medicare Savings Programs are run through each state's Medicaid program and help people with Medicare pay some of their Medicare costs. In Florida, applications go through the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF).
Who it is for
People who have (or are eligible for) Medicare and have limited income and resources. There are several levels, including the Qualified Medicare Beneficiary (QMB), Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary (SLMB), and Qualifying Individual (QI) programs. Depending on the level, the program may pay the Medicare Part B premium, and in some cases Part A premiums, deductibles, coinsurance, and copays.
How we can help
- Explain which level may fit your situation.
- Help you gather the documents needed.
- Help you complete and submit the application and follow up.
We are not a government agency. Final eligibility decisions are made by the agencies that run each program. Our help is free.
