STEP 1: Income Limits Income is determined by all sources. It’s also based upon the number of dependents living in the household. If one person of a married couple participates in EZMeds, then the total household income of both will be used. If a married couple has an adult child living a home who needs financial assistance with their prescription drugs, then only the adult child’s income is used. If you participate in Medicare and your income is below $13,783 (single) or $18,481 (family) you are Dual Eligible (qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid) thus do not qualify for the EZMeds Pharmacy Assistance Program. Use this chart to determine if you meet the income requirement: |

Step 2: Current Prescription Drug Coverage
You cannot have active prescription drug coverage from insurance benefits or government assistance programs such as Group Health Plans, Part D Plans, Medicaid, V.A. or State Assistance, unless:
- Your current coverage has been exhausted; or
- The prescribed medication is specifically not covered under the formulary of your current prescription drug plan
