Center for Medicare Advocacy

Medicare & Medicaid · Alaska · Free

Legal advocacy for Medicare rights, especially appeals and complex coverage issues. Most relevant for low-income seniors who may qualify for Extra Help, QMB, SLMB, or QI without realizing it. Counselors walk through specific plans by name, compare drug costs side by side, and flag Medicare Savings Program eligibility. One of the most-used resources for older adults without family help navigating the system. Open at no cost to Alaska seniors and the families supporting them.
