Medicare Savings Program
Many states have programs for people with limited income and resources that pay some or all of Medicare's premiums and may pay Medicare deductibles and co-insurance. Find out if your state has a program that can help you.
Medicare Prescription Payment Plan
The Medicare Prescription Payment Plan is a payment option that helps patients manage their out-of-pocket cost for drugs covered by their plan by spreading the cost across the calendar year (January–December). Anyone with a Medicare drug plan or Medicare health plan with drug coverage (like a Medicare Advantage Plan with drug coverage) can use this payment option, and participation is voluntary.
Medicare Part D Extra Help — Low-Income Subsidy
Medicare patients who have limited income and resources may qualify for "extra help" to pay for prescription drugs. The Low-Income Subsidy (LIS) program provides financial assistance for patients who may otherwise be unable to afford the costs associated with their Medicare Part D plan.
Those who are eligible for LIS may:
- Have no monthly premium
- Have no deductible
- Have reduced or no prescription co-insurance and co-payments
- Have no gap in coverage
Additional affordability support from Johnson & Johnson
Patient assistance from Johnson & Johnson is available if you are uninsured or have commercial, employer-sponsored, or government coverage that does not fully meet your needs. You may be eligible to receive your medicine from J&J at no cost for up to one year if you meet the eligibility and income requirements for the Johnson & Johnson Patient Assistance Program.
