Shelton-Mason County Journal of Shelton, Washington

It you have Medicare, need help paying drug co-pays and premiums, and your income is less than $1,353 a month for a single person or $1,821 a month for a couple, then you may qualify for the Social Security extra-help program. Even if you applied last year and were turned down, you may now qualify because the income and resource limits have been raised.

For more information and assistance tiling the application, contact the Mason County Office of the Lewis-Mason-Thurston Area Agency on Aging at (360) 427-2225, extension 11 or toll free at 1-877-227-4696 to schedule an appointment.
