Although the prescription drug plan (Part D) premium is bundled with the total plan cost, some plans have supplemental costs and/or offer low-income subsidy (LIS) assistance. LIS, also known as Extra Help, is a Social Security program that helps people with limited income and resources lower or cut Part D costs.
The following table outlines the premium details of this prescription drug plan.
Basic Part D Premium: | $0.00 |
Supplemental Part D Premium: | $0.00 |
Total Part D Premium: | $0.00 |

If you would like more information about the Extra Help program, you can refer to the Social Security Extra Help page.
