Medicare Savings Programs

Alabama has programs for people with limited income and resources that pay some or all of Medicare's premiums. Some programs may also pay Medicare deductibles and coinsurance.
You can apply for these programs if:
  • You have Medicare Part A. (If you have Medicare Part A but don't think you can afford it, there is a program that may pay the Medicare Part A premium for you.)
Call your state medical assistance office (1-800-362-1504) and ask for information on Medicare Savings Programs.  You can also access the  Alabama Medicaid Agency's  website to get more information or download an application.
There are three Medicare Savings Programs:
  • Qualified Medicare Beneficiary (QMB)
  • Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary (SLMB)
  • Qualifying Individual (QI)
**Note: New applications for Q-I are not being accepted at this time.
