If I am not certain whether or not I qualify, should I apply for extra help?

Yes, because there is no risk or cost to apply. And, if you qualify, you will get extra help paying for the annual deductible, premiums, and copayments for Medicare prescription drug coverage.You can apply or get more information about extra help by calling Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) or visiting www.socialsecurity.gov.
