Medicare Savings Programs in every state

Your state pays your Medicare Part B premium, which puts that money back into your Social Security check. The state Medicaid agency decides, not Medicare.

Several states have no asset test and several use higher income limits than the federal floor. We do not publish a state figure unless the state's own page confirmed it.
