Single lady here. Social Security, in a few years, will be between $1300-$1400 a month. Can easily live on this since my house payment is only $50 a mo with no utility costs. House is off grid powered by our spring somehow (hydro power)
Health will not sustain working longer.
I am baffled by the quotes I received. I understand I qualify for a msp (medicare savings program), the QI program, which covers part b premiums. But what baffled me is the medicare.gov site gave me these results when I clicked "find a plan" and clicked I qualify for a msp program. It's possible I'd only qualify for "Extra Help" but clicking either one, gives me 4 results. Here are two of them
BUT....a zero deductible health plan? or just 58 dollars a month!! Granted there are high Out of Pocket spending limits but still. The few senior friends i Have pay at least $125 a month for a supplemental.
Anyone ever heard of such a thing? I hear the average Social Security Check is about $1400 a month so this has to be something somewhat known by some. Thanks!
P.S Oh and I guess the $189 deductible for part b I'd pay too? And $1260 if I am admitted to a hospital? Thanks
