Best Answer

Congress has passed bills which provide for Medicare Savings Programs in which the part B premium is waived ( will be paid by the state in which member lives) . It is based on a member's income. For Part D if the member qualifies, Low income subsidy (LIS) is available. The part D premium will be paid by the state and the copays for drugs will also be reduced, with no "donut hole" during the year. Anyone who has problems affording either the part B premium or Part D costs should contact Medicare or Social Security and apply.

Can an employeer offer reimbursement for medical coverage and not offer to others with no coverage?

If I understand the question correctly the answer is yes. An employer can have a Health Reimbursement Arrangement as the mechanism to pay for employees health care. In those plan documents the employer can specify what they will reimburse for (ie insurance premiums, Rx, dnetal etc). If the plan is established such that they only pay for insurance premiums then they are generally under no obligation to pay for out-of-pocket expenses for an employee that has no insurance. That said, they can not discriminate within the terms of the plan. If the plan says they will reimburse for XXX then they must do that for all employees.
