You will need bank statements and tax return information and any retirement benefits to see if you qualify. If you want to talk to someone at Social Security the number you can call is :
1-800-772-1213
You can even look at Medicare.Gov and research Medicare part D extra help. I would also consider looking at LIS : Limited income subsidy. It may help with copays and premiums

You can also apply for state insurance with your local welfare office. Depending on state they can provide additional resources for local organizations that provide additional services based on eligibility.

Plans are insured or covered by a Medicare Advantage (HMO, PPO and PFFS) organization with a Medicare contract and/or a Medicare-approved Part D sponsor. Enrollment in the plan depends on the plan’s contract renewal with Medicare. We do not offer every plan available in your area. Any information we provide is limited to those plans we do offer in your area. Please contact Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE to get information on all of your options.
