The State of Connecticut offers financial
assistance to eligible Medicare enrollees through our 'Medicare Savings Programs.'
These programs may help pay Medicare Part B premiums, deductibles and co-insurance.
More people are eligible now than ever before, as a result of a change in state law.
Specifically, the state has raised the income-eligibility limits and eliminated the
asset reporting requirement.
If you qualify for one of the three Medicare Savings Programs (depending on your income),
DSS will pay your Medicare Part B premium each month. In addition, some enrollees will be
covered for Medicare deductibles and co-insurance.
