Good News! You might qualify for PremiumAssist, a government program that may pay your Medicare Part B premium for you. Your Medicare Part B premium is deducted each month from your Social Security check. We’ve arranged for PremiumAssist to tell you about this special Medicare savings program and to help you determine if you are eligible. This program is free — qualification depends on your current household income and assets. Your participation will not change or reduce your Medicare benefits or coverage.

PremiumAssist recently sent information in the mail. Please review it and contact PremiumAssist directly to learn more. The information contains a toll-free number just for UPMC for Life members. Representatives are available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

UPMC for Life has the federal government’s approval to work with PremiumAssist to help you learn if you qualify for this free program.
