Medicare & Medicaid · Vermont · Free

CMS — federal agency that runs Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP. Policy and updates. Most relevant for low-income seniors who may qualify for Extra Help, QMB, SLMB, or QI without realizing it. Most questions can be answered online or by phone; there's no eligibility screening to call. Many users come away with a $40–200/month reduction in Part D drug costs they didn't know they qualified for. All services free of charge to qualifying seniors and family caregivers.
