Introduction to LIS and Extra Help Education Programs

Welcome to Norton Community Medical Associates, your trusted partner in health and wellness. As a leading healthcare provider in the field of health, we understand the importance of accessibility and affordability when it comes to healthcare services. That's why we are proud to offer the LIS (Low-Income Subsidy) and Extra Help Education programs.

What is LIS?

LIS, also known as the Extra Help program, is a federal program designed to assist individuals with limited income and resources in affording their Medicare prescription drug coverage. Through LIS, eligible individuals can receive financial assistance to cover the costs associated with their prescription medications.

How Does LIS Work?

The LIS program works by providing subsidies to eligible individuals, which helps lower or completely eliminate the out-of-pocket expenses related to prescription drugs. This means that individuals who qualify for LIS can obtain their necessary medications at significantly reduced costs, making healthcare more affordable and accessible for those in need.

Eligibility for LIS

To determine eligibility for LIS, various factors are taken into consideration, including income level, resources, and marital status. Individuals must meet specific requirements to qualify for the program. Our dedicated team at Norton Community Medical Associates is available to guide you through the eligibility criteria and assist you in applying for the LIS program.

Benefits of LIS

LIS offers numerous benefits to eligible individuals, ensuring they receive the medications they need without the burden of high costs. Some of the advantages of LIS include:

  • Significantly reduced or no premiums for prescription drug coverage.
  • Low or no deductibles for prescription medications.
  • Lower copayments for covered drugs.
  • Access to a wide range of prescription medications at affordable prices.
