Medicare beneficiaries with Medicare Part D may be eligible for Extra Help, a program through Social Security that helps with out-of-pocket costs related to prescription drug plans. Income and resource guidelines apply.
Missouri Rx is an extra help program available for Missouri residents who have a Medicare Prescription Drug plan and meet income guidelines. MoRx pays half of the deductible and half of the co-pays for drugs covered under their plan.
