Extra Help (LIS)

Cuts Part D premiums, deductibles, and copays. Most eligible people pay $0 to $5 per prescription.

💵

Medicare Savings Programs

Ohio's QMB, SLMB, and QI programs pay your Part B premium — saving $185+ a month.

🤝

Dual-eligible (Medicare + Medicaid)

If you qualify for both, special D-SNP plans offer richer benefits at $0 cost.

Extra Help (the Low-Income Subsidy)

Extra Help cuts Part D premiums to $0 (on benchmark plans), eliminates the deductible, and drops copays to a few dollars per prescription. The 2025-2026 income limit is higher than most people guess, and the resource limit excludes your home and one car.

Medicare Savings Programs (MSPs) in Ohio

  • QMB — Ohio Medicaid pays your Part B premium, deductible, and most cost-sharing.
  • SLMB — pays your Part B premium only.
  • QI — pays your Part B premium; income limits are higher than SLMB.
  • Qualifying for any MSP also automatically qualifies you for Extra Help.

Dual-eligible (D-SNP) plans

If you have both Medicare and Ohio Medicaid, you can enroll in a Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP). These plans usually offer $0 premium, $0 copays, and richer extras like grocery allowances, transportation, and OTC benefits. A licensed agent will tell you which D-SNP plans are available in your county and rank them by what you'll actually use.
