Medicare Enrollment Help

The common Medicare tasks, signing up for Parts A and B, applying for Medicaid and checking eligibility for the Low-Income Subsidy, also called Extra Help, are paperwork Kris Kryder does with you. Kryder Cares is not a government agency, and there is no cost to you.

Medicare Enrollment, Done With You

Pick the task below and call or book a time. Kris files it with you, start to finish.

  • Medicare: Sign up for Medicare Part A and B
  • Medicaid: Application to apply for Medicaid
  • Low-Income Subsidy: Eligibility for the Low-Income Subsidy

How Kris Handles Each Step

Signing up for Parts A and B is an application filed with Social Security, and Kris files it with you. Have your Social Security number and any employer coverage dates ready. If you are already receiving Social Security benefits, you may be enrolled automatically.

Medicaid and Extra Help can lower your costs if your income and assets are limited. People with both Medicare and Medicaid may qualify for a Dual Special Needs Plan. Prescription lookups let you compare drug plans, but Kris can do that comparison for you with the Rx drug lookup form.

In Ohio, Medicaid and Medicare Savings Program applications go to the Ohio Department of Medicaid or your county Job and Family Services office, and Kris helps you put the application together. Kris meets clients at the Kryder Cares office in Perrysburg, or by phone or video.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I sign up for Medicare Part A and Part B?

Kris files your Part A and B application with Social Security with you, online, at no cost. If you already get Social Security benefits when you turn 65, you are usually enrolled automatically. Kris can help you decide when to enroll in Part B, especially if you still have employer coverage.

What is the Low-Income Subsidy (Extra Help)?

Extra Help, also called the Low-Income Subsidy, is a Medicare program that helps people with limited income and resources pay Part D premiums, deductibles and copays. Kris files the application with Social Security with you. If you qualify, you may also get Special Enrollment Periods to change drug plans, and Kris helps you look at plans afterward.

Can I have both Medicare and Medicaid?

Yes. People who qualify for both are called dual eligible. Medicaid may help pay Medicare premiums and cost sharing, depending on your level of eligibility. Dual eligible people may also qualify for a D-SNP, a Medicare Advantage plan designed for people with both Medicare and Medicaid. Kris can explain your options.

Is Kryder Cares part of Medicare or the government?

No. Kryder Cares is a private, independent insurance agency. It is not associated with, endorsed or authorized by the Social Security Administration, the Department of Health and Human Services or the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. For help with your Medicare choices, call Kris at (419) 277-8097.

How do I report suspected Medicare fraud?

Report suspected Medicare fraud to 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) or the HHS Office of Inspector General at oig.hhs.gov. Watch for charges on your Medicare Summary Notice for services you never received, and be wary of anyone who calls unexpectedly asking for your Medicare number. Keep your statements and compare them with your own records. If a bill or notice looks wrong, Kris can help you read it.

Why talk with an agent before choosing a plan?

Because the yearly cost, your doctors and your drugs all have to line up. Kris runs the comparison with you, explains the differences in plain English, check your doctors, and help with enrollment. Her consultations are no-cost and no-obligation. Start with the request a quote form.
