Florida Medicare Savings Program
Many people do not know that they qualify for Medicaid. Qualifying situations can include income level or certain medical conditions. You may be able to participate in one of Florida’s Medicare Savings Programs if you qualify. Medicare Savings Programs help you pay for out-of-pocket expenses such as deductibles and co-pays.
